Hon KIRITAPU ALLAN: Eliminating pests in this area will protect New Zealand's rarest kiwi, the rowi, along with many other rare and threatened species, including kōtuku, kea, and the recently rediscovered Ōkārito geko. The project will deploy boots-on-the-ground labour and innovative remote reporting detection devices, high-tech traps and bait stations, with the mountains, rivers, and lakes that surround the area being used as a natural barrier—so, no fences—against predator reinvasions. Can I thank the community partners that are involved, including Zero Invasive Predators, Osprey, the NEXT Foundation, and the Rūnanga O Makaawhio for their hard work and dedication towards this ambitious and exciting project.
