Jeff GrantGUEST
Uh, the other option is now we're able to operate under the new, uh, Resource Management Act.
Jeff GrantGUEST
Uh, but look, you know, you're looking at two years to get through this regulatory process.
Jeff GrantGUEST

It is exciting to be opening that market, and fundamentally, we want to make it easier to grow things, make things, and build things by driving through the Resource Management Act reform that Labor say they want to go back to the table on.
Jack TameHOST
Uh, w- when you think of business' role in driving growth, is it the bigger firms or small businesses that you think have the bigger role to play in actually driving growth?
Nicola WillisGUEST
