But the Luxon Government has introduced what could be the single worst law ever passed for the environment. The draft \u2018Fast-track Approvals Bill\u2019 would give just three Ministers the power to approve or deny development projects.

The Supreme Court rejected their application for environmental reasons, yet it could now be rubber-stamped.<\/p>\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><a href=\"https:\/\/wwww.marchfornature.nz\/?source=greenpeace\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"800\" height=\"450\" src=\"https:\/\/www.greenpeace.org\/static\/planet4-aotearoa-stateless\/2024\/05\/40898126-marchfornature-twitter-card.png\" title=\"March for nature - stop the fast-track Sat, 8 June, Aotea Square, 1pm - Rain or Shine!\" alt=\"March for nature - stop the fast-track Sat, 8 June, Aotea Square, 1pm - Rain or Shine!\" class=\"wp-image-63621\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.greenpeace.org\/static\/planet4-aotearoa-stateless\/2024\/05\/40898126-marchfornature-twitter-card.png 800w, https:\/\/www.greenpeace.org\/static\/planet4-aotearoa-stateless\/2024\/05\/40898126-marchfornature-twitter-card-600x338.png 600w, https:\/\/www.greenpeace.org\/static\/planet4-aotearoa-stateless\/2024\/05\/40898126-marchfornature-twitter-card-768x432.png 768w, https:\/\/www.greenpeace.org\/static\/planet4-aotearoa-stateless\/2024\/05\/40898126-marchfornature-twitter-card-510x287.png 510w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><\/a><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Sat, 8 June, Aotea Square, 1pm &#8211;
