Act's radical agenda for local government - NZ Herald
Hide is keeping his lips sealed on what progress he would like to make on it in his new role as Minister of Local Government.
National and Act agree on the need to change the Resource Management Act, but Mr Hide has gone silent on his party's pre-election policies for much wider restructuring in the sector, as he changes from campaigner to minister.
Act wants councils to privatise their commercial activities and to supply water on a 'fully commercial basis', but Mr Hide would not identify yesterday which activities should be privatised or discuss these policies at all.
