27688 (2026). Lan Pham to the Minister responsible for RMA Reform: Following Reply 19720 (2026), why did the Ministry for the Environment not write to Greenpeace about the introduction of the Natural Environment Bill and the Planning Bill, while other eNGOs like Forest & Bird and the Environmental Defence Society were?

Hon Chris Bishop: The Ministry for the Environment does not currently have regular individual engagement with Greenpeace, but does regularly meet with Forest & Bird and the Environmental Defence Society. Engagement was based on current relationships held by the Ministry.
