37415 (2024). Chlöe Swarbrick to the Minister for Resources: Will a Climate Implications of Policy Assessment be required before any permits for oil and gas exploration are granted?

Hon Shane Jones: A Climate Implications of Policy Assessment is required when certain types of policy proposals are presented to Cabinet. Permit grants under the Crown Minerals Act 1991 are statutory decisions made by the Minister of Resources, not Cabinet.
