Hon MICHAEL WOOD (Minister of Transport): I'm very pleased to confirm the Government is delivering on its commitment to bring New Zealand's rail network back up to scratch and support our economic recovery. KiwiRail's inaugural rail network investment programme was released today, which details renewals and upgrades on the rail network over the next three years. The disruptions to the supply chain due to COVID have shown how important it is to have a reliable rail network to keep freight flowing and keep our economy moving.
