IrrigationNZ thanks Nathan Guy for his work in Parliament, congratulates Todd Muller
IrrigationNZ wishes to thank
Hon Nathan Guy for his contribution to the primary sector as
he announces his retirement from 15 years in Parliament with
a departure from politics next year.
Following news
of Nathan’s decision, the National Party today announced
that Todd Muller, Member of Parliament for the Bay of
Plenty, will be picking up the Agriculture, Biosecurity and
Food Safety portfolios from Hon Nathan Guy. IrrigationNZ
would like to congratulate Todd on this new role.
IrrigationNZ also notes that Hon Scott Simpson, Member of
Parliament for Coromandel, who leads the Environment
portfolio for National, will take on Climate Change from
Todd, which IrrigationNZ recognises as a sensible and good
fit.
“IrrigationNZ looks forward to continuing to work across all political parties to help develop pragmatic, fair and future-focused freshwater and irrigation policy to ensure all New Zealanders benefit from this precious resource,” says Elizabeth Soal, chief executive of IrrigationNZ.
