As part of the Government's economic recovery, we continue to roll out the Jobs for Nature programme. For the Department of Conservation - led projects, Jobs for Nature has delivered nearly 2,700 jobs so far. More than 1 million hours have been worked up and down Aotearoa by young men and women and people who strap on their boots, day in and day out, to get out there and look after our environment. We're only 18 months into this programme, and there is plenty more to come. Under the Department of Conservation (DOC) mantle—it's a three-tiered beast. But under the DOC component that I'm responsible for, we have 200 projects on the books as we are rolling out into 2024.
