This bill is all about the time being right for greater Christchurch to take further progress in the transition back to local leadership of regeneration. Christchurch has shown it is ready, able, and willing, and this bill shows central government's faith that this is the case while also ensuring the Crown has the required ability to complete its work in the Ōtākaro Avon River Corridor to support the ongoing regeneration. I commend this bill to the House.
