Hon POTO WILLIAMS (Minister of Conservation): Yes. Earlier this term, we announced a significant work programme to reclassify 2.5 million hectares of stewardship land as a means to further protect land with conservation and cultural values. Stewardship land makes up about 9 percent of New Zealand's land area, with almost 30 percent of the land administered by the Department of Conservation. The reclassification of stewardship land is an important step to protect conservation values from the adverse effects of activities on conservation land, which includes mining. There is still a process to work through to further develop and fully implement the broader policies of having no new mines. As a Government, we remain committed to ensuring mining only happens where and when appropriate, and according to robust regulatory standards. This includes properly protecting the biodiversity, cultural, historical, and scientific values found from public conservation land.
