Election Round-up

Over the weekend, New Zealand roundly voted for a change of Government.

Property Council New Zealand remains apolitical in our mission to help shape cities where communities thrive. Our advocacy priorities are set by our annual member survey, regional committees, Advisory and National Boards.

Once negotiations are complete and portfolios announced, Property Council will be reaching out to congratulate new Ministers and MPs. We aim to hold a number of meetings, hosting MPs to discuss topics from commercial and industrial depreciation through to housing and the planning system.
