Proposals for local government reform in the Wellington region

This release is to publish a copy of a paper prepared by some of the Greater Wellington Regional Council councillors.

We are putting it into the public domain in part to help stimulate what has been so far a relatively lacklustre debate, and partly in anticipation of early post-election action by an incoming administration interested in changing the political balance of central and local agencies.

We would be very interested in your comments, and warmly invite you to forward your thoughts to any councillors, who are all able to be reached via firstname.surname@gw.govt.nz.

We would also encourage you to forward the paper to any of your acquaintances, and to send them the same invitation to comment.

The paper is available here.

ENDS
