40665 (2025). Hon Rachel Brooking to the Minister responsible for RMA Reform: Does he agree with Shane Jones, who said with regard to the Environmental Protection Authority “It’s either a matter that the personnel are the problem, the culture is the problem, or the law is the problem – because I refuse to accept that all the applicants are the problem” and what action, if any, is he taking to correct these alleged problems?

Hon Chris Bishop: I have requested officials provide advice on possible legislation changes to make improvements to the implementation of the Act, including on a range of technical changes.
