2496 (2024). Tangi Utikere to the Minister of Transport: Does the Minister agree that New Zealand needs to take action to reduce transport emissions by 41% by 2035 to reach net zero by 2050 and, if not, why not?
Hon Simeon Brown: The Coalition Government is focused on achieving the Net Zero 2050 Goals. In the second emissions reduction plan, the Government will outline its plan for meeting emissions budgets. We have been clear that the Emissions Trading Scheme is New Zealand's key tool to reduce emissions.
