Federated Farmers Submission on West Coast Regional Council's Proposed Regional Policy Statement

Federated Farmers feels strongly that a regulatory framework that allows for on-farm innovation, flexibility in land use and supports a strong stewardship ethic will lead to increasingly better outcomes. We consider that Council has come a long way towards achieving many of what Federated Farmers seeks in a planning framework and we support and commend Council for the approach taken. The Proposed RPS takes a practical and pragmatic approach to the management of the regionally significant issues for the West Coast.
