37006 (2025). Lan Pham to the Minister for Resources: Further to Reply 34914, what, if any, is the benefit to other private investors of a $200m investment from the government in new gas fields?

Hon Shane Jones: The settings for drawing down this funding are under active consideration. Private investors will have a range of interests and will determine for themselves whether or not they wish to invest alongside the New Zealand government in increasing gas supply.
