The New Zealand Government today moved to cut red-tape to allow homes to be rebuilt more quickly, in the aftermath of the Christchurch earthquake.
Nine regulations had been changed to help speed up the recovery process, including three changes to the Resource Management legislation. A new fast-track procedure would speed up the resource consent process for land remediation work by removing the need for public notifications, hearings and appeals.
The only problem, from a Better Regulation point of view, is that once more regulatory work is inspired by current events, not sound permanently enforced principles.
