It's clear that in this bill and the amendments, the urban design features are being negotiated away between the Government and the National Party. We know this because we can read about it almost hour by hour in the mainstream media, as the horse-trading about whether it is 6 metres or 5 metres or 4 metres in height to boundary, and all of these things are literally being negotiated in the media. Now, that's not how good laws are made in a democracy. That's not how enduring laws are made which actually solve really complex problems. As a civil engineer who came to Parliament to solve difficult problems, to find ways to change laws to get things built faster, to deliver infrastructure more affordably, and to reduce barriers to get stuff built, I was shocked. I am shocked. So were the submitters, so were the people who do want to get more stuff built—they were shocked.
