Hon DAVID PARKER (Minister for the Environment): Mr Chairman, I'm happy to respond briefly. We have just promulgated a change to the National Policy Statement on Urban Development Capacity, which does have the effect of relaxing that urban boundary in respect of planned changes that will be necessary for councils facing high rates of population growth. It both encourages good urban form by encouraging the natural intensification that will occur but for strict plan rules preventing it and also in respect of planning for growth. Growing centres will require councils to consider whether they've got their zone boundaries correct.
