In the criteria that the Minister for the Environment has to consider when deciding whether projects should go on the fast track, those have been strengthened. As Duncan Webb noted, there was already a major criteria that projects have to contribute to New Zealand's efforts to mitigate climate change and transition more quickly to a low-emissions economy, and the impacts of reducing New Zealand's greenhouse gas emissions is all there in relation to that criteria. The select committee has strengthened it by including a specific reference to greenhouse gas emissions when the Minister comes to consider adverse environmental effects. One of the key areas where the bill was strengthened early on was ensuring that there was a strong commitment to Part 2, in terms of the decisions made by the Minister and by the expert consenting panel so that the environmental bottom lines that are part of the Resource Management Act (RMA) come across to this bill.
