Friend --
New Zealand First is excited to release the coalition
Government’s 100-day plan in conjunction with our coalition partners,
just three days after the new Government was sworn in. The
New Zealand public have voted for a change in direction and we will be
working hard to ensure that this ambitious plan is implemented as soon
as possible.
The immediate focus will be on
rebuilding the economy, easing the cost of living, restoring law and
order, and delivering better public services. The following are taken
directly from the National New Zealand First coalition agreement.
We will accelerate the following:
- Begin
work to repeal the Therapeutics Products Act 2023
- Begin
work on a National Infrastructure Agency
- Make
gang membership an aggravating factor at sentencing
- Introduce legislation to extend eligibility to offence-based
rehabilitation programmes to remand prisoners
- Begin
work to crack down on serious youth offending
- Require
primary and intermediate schools to teach an hour of reading, writing
and maths per day starting in 2024 and appoint an Expert Group to
redesign the English and Mathematics curriculum for primary school
students
- Begin
work on delivering better public services and strengthening
democracy
- Introduce legislation to disestablish the Maori Health
Authority
And we will also be the hand brake to:
- Stop all
work on He Puapua
- By 1
December 2023, lodge a reservation against adopting amendments to the
World Health Organisation (WHO) health regulations to allow the
government to consider these against a “national interest
test”
- Repeal
amendments to the Smokefree Environments and Regulated Products Act
1990 and regulations
- Repeal
the Water Services Entities Act 2022 (Three Waters)
- Withdraw
central government from Let’s Get Wellington Moving (LGWM)
- Stop
central government work on the Auckland Light Rail project
- Repeal
the Spatial Planning and Natural Built Environment Act and introduce a
fast-track consenting regime
New Zealand First is grateful to
once again be serving our country from the halls of Parliament, as we
represent the supporters who entrusted us with their votes.
