Since taking on the position of Minister for Greater Christchurch Regeneration, I've been working hard to hasten the path back to local leadership and regeneration in Greater Christchurch. I would like to acknowledge the two other members who have served in this role as Minister in charge of getting things right after the earthquakes in Christchurch: the Hon Gerry Brownlee and the Hon Nicky Wagner. I made it clear when I became Minister that I was very open about my expectation that I believed I should be the last Minister fulfilling this role. This bill further illustrates the trajectory towards achieving this.
