30418 (2023). Hon Dr Megan Woods to the Minister of Climate Change: Does he agree with Dr Rod Carr who said "By reducing the emissions footprint of Aotearoa New Zealand’s exports, the country can both contribute to its global commitments and ensure our export products – such as dairy, fresh produce and steel – remain sought after by global buyers," and if so, what initiatives, if any, does the Government have to support businesses to decarbonise their supply chains?
Hon Simon Watts: Yes. Announcements include policy to increase supply of renewable energy, which is a key enabler for decarbonisation.
