Hon SHANE JONES: Up to $2 million has been allocated to set up temporary water supplies in Kaikohe and Kaitāia, funding the infrastructure necessary to pipe water from a Sweetwater farm and, in Kaikohe, from Lake Ōmāpere. Up to $2 million will also be supported by approximately $400,000 from the Far North District Council. Former Ministry for Primary Industries director-general Martyn Dunne will lead the project, reflective of how concerned the Government is to address outstanding issues in provincial New Zealand.
