  • Schedule of Responsibilities Delegated to Associate Ministers and Parliamentary Under-Secretaries
    Schedule of Responsibilities Delegated to Associate Ministers and Parliamentary Under-Secretaries 14 June 2018 276641v1 This paper is presented to the House, in accordance with the suggestion of the Standing Orders Committee in its Report on the Review of Standing Orders [I. 18A, December 1995]. At page 76 of its report, the Standing Orders Committee recorded its support for oral questions to be asked directly of Associate Ministers who have been formally delegated defined responsibilities by Ministers having primary responsibility for particular portfolios. The Standing Orders Committee proposed that the Leader of the House should table in the House a schedule of such delegations at least annually. The attached schedule has been prepared in the Cabinet Office for this purpose. The schedule also includes responsibilities allocated to Parliamentary Under-Secretaries. Under Standing Orders, Parliamentary Under-Secretaries may only be asked oral questions in the House in the same way that any MP who is not a Minister can be questioned. However, they may answer questions on behalf of the principal Minister in the same way that Associate Ministers can answer. The delegations are also included in the Cabinet Office section of the Department of the Prime Minister and Cabinet website (http://www.dpmc.govt.nz/cabinet/ministers/delegated), which will be updated from time to time to reflect any substantive amendments to any of the delegated responsibilities. Hon Chris Hipkins Leader of the House June 2018 276641v1 2 Schedule of Responsibilities Delegated to Associate Ministers and Parliamentary Under-Secretaries as at 14 June 2018 Associate Ministers are appointed to provide portfolio Ministers with assistance in carrying out their portfolio responsibilities.

    Reliable. Sustainable. Valuable. ANNUAL INTEGRATED REPORT 2017 F.18a Welcome – Tēnā koe For more than 150 years rail has played a vital role as an enabler of economic growth in New Zealand, evolving and adapting to meet customer needs despite significant geographical challenges and changing trends in trade. In the 1800s engineers designed a rail network that could operate in New Zealand’s uncompromising landscape, implementing wooden infrastructure that ran across swamps, rugged mountains, dense forests and wide rivers, to connect otherwise isolated communities and industries to the market. Much has changed since KiwiRail’s humble beginnings in 1863. Wooden infrastructure has been replaced by more resilient materials and today we look to advanced technological solutions to ensure the safety of the network and our people. To this day KiwiRail’s rail network continues to connect businesses, communities, importers and exporters to the world. As history shows, rail is adept at changing its services to meet the evolving needs of industry. As port flows increase and commuter demands continue to grow, KiwiRail is developing dynamic and innovative solutions to meet New Zealand’s changing transport requirements. 2 | Reliable. Sustainable.

  • Solid Energy's Beneficial Use of Waste Streams
    WASTE OR RESOURCE: SOLID ENERGY’S BENEFICIAL USE OF WASTE STREAMS Paul Weber1, Joe Wildy1, Fiona Crombie1, William Olds1, Phil Rossiter1, Mark Pizey1, Nathan Thompson2, Paul Comeskey2, Dave Stone2, Andrew Simcock3, Andy Matheson1, Karen Adair4, Mark Christison5, Hayden Mason6, Mark Milke7 1-Solid Energy New Zealand Ltd; 2-Stockton Alliance New Zealand Ltd; 3-Biodiesel New Zealand Ltd; 4-Bio-Protection Research Centre, Lincoln University; 5-Christchurch City Council; 6-Holcim New Zealand Ltd; 7-Natural and Civil Engineering School, University of Canterbury Correspondence to: [email protected] Abstract In the last decade Solid Energy New Zealand Ltd - in collaboration with its research, applied technology and business partners - has made considerable progress in identifying waste resource streams which can be beneficially reused to support the state owned enterprise’s business objectives. Within the company’s coal business, Christchurch City’s high-quality biosolids are being used as a topsoil supplement in mine site rehabilitation. Coal ash from boilers is being used to create a capping material which reduces the formation of acid mine drainage. Cement kiln dust, a by-product of cement-manufacturing, is being used for waste rock capping to reduce acid mine drainage, and as a binding agent to fill and make safe underground voids prior to mining. Waste mussel shell is being used to create sulphate- reducing bioreactors to lower acidity and metals loads in mine water. Within Solid Energy’s renewable energy companies (Nature’s Flame and Biodiesel New Zealand) - approximately 150,000 tonnes of wood pellet fuel has been manufactured from untreated plantation-grown pinewood offcuts, shavings, and sawdust; 6,000 tonnes of used cooking oil has been collected for conversion into biodiesel.
