The Mike Hosking Breakfast - Un pódcast de Newstalk ZB - Martes
The Government's signalling the first list of projects to be fast-tracked won't be the last. 149 projects are being lined up to receive the fast-track treatment. It would see the building of up to 55,000 new homes, 180 kilometres of roads, and 11 mining projects. Infrastructure Minister Chris Bishop told Mike Hosking the advisory group recommended 342 projects to go through to the next stage - but they didn't have capacity for all. “We’ve gone for the highest quality applications. Not to say the ones that missed out are not worthy projects — many of them are — and they’ll be other opportunities for those projects to be fast tracked.” LISTEN ABOVESee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
