Do you want to have your say on our draft advice?

Our first package of advice will be open for consultation from 1 February to 28 March 2021 and will outline what climate action could look like in Aotearoa. Anyone will be able to make a submission on our advice, and share their thoughts on whether we are on the right track. This first package of advice contains four discrete pieces of work. They are:

  • The country’s first three emissions budgets covering the period until 2035
  • Advice that will help to form Aotearoa’s first emissions reduction plan to show how the emissions budgets can be achieved
  • Advice on what potential reductions in biogenic methane might be needed in the future
  • A review of Aotearoa’s first Nationally Determined Contribution under the Paris Agreement.

We will provide more details on how to participate in our consultation closer to the time. You'll hear from us plenty before then as we'll be sharing as much of our thinking as we can, as early as we can. Keep checking our website and social media channels to stay updated. We look forward to our conversations with you.
