Submission to NZ Natural Environment Bill

by | Feb 26, 2026 | Government Submissions

Comms Declare supports the introduction of environmental limits in the Natural Environment Bill and recommends that the Bill be amended to enable or require national
environmental standards restricting fossil fuel advertising and sponsorship on publicly owned or controlled land, buildings and infrastructure.

We consider this a proportionate, practical and system-consistent measure that would materially strengthen the Bill’s ability to achieve its environmental and human health objectives. We propose that this targeted amendment be implemented through the Bill’s national environmental standards framework.
