COMMENTARY

“Auckland Council and the government have collaborated to develop and enact a new regulatoryregime via the Housing Accord and Special Housing Areas (HASHA) Act 2013. This enables the fasttracking of housing policy development and consents. Through establishing the Housing ProjectOffice, we have integrated planning, policy, consenting and master-planning in one office, functionsthat had originally been split.

The first phase of the Housing Project Office has focused heavily on SHA identification andestablishment. Our next phase will increasingly focus on defining an overarching housing role for Auckland Council so we can lead our communities in this critical area of well-being for Aucklanders.”

As the population of Auckland increases, so do the demandson potable water sources and associated water infrastructure.Reducing per capita water consumption delays the need fordevelopment of new water sources and costly infrastructure.Using water efficiently is important to ensure that natural

water resources are managed sustainably. It also reduces theneed to discharge wastewater containing contaminants intothe environment.

COMMENTARY

“We are fortunate to live in Auckland with its beautiful natural environment and recreational areas including spectacular coastlines and bush. Our environmental programs, education and partnershipsbenefit local environments across Auckland. The Proposed Auckland Unitary Plan has been designed to

improve the environment and move us towards a “Green Auckland” which is fundamental to achievingthe vision of the Auckland Plan.

Preserving and protecting what we have may not be transformational, however projects such as WaiOra Wai Māori Tāmaki Makaurau; Auckland’s Freshwater Programme, Tai Timu Tai Pari - Sea Change,and the Environmental Strategic Action Plan give us the opportunity to deliver those transformational

shifts required to make Auckland the world’s most liveable city.”

Target 6.2Increase annual average productivity growth from 1% p.a. forthe last decade to 2% p.a. for the next 30 years.

Productivity relates to how efficiently a firm or any otherorganisation can turn its inputs, such as labour and capital, intooutputs in the form of goods and services. Labour productivityis a measure of the amount produced for a certain amount oflabour effort. It is closely related to individual incomes (i.e.

wages and salaries) and living standards, and it can bemeasured with reasonable reliability. The simplest measure isoutput per worker (GDP per capita) which can increase ifworkers produce more in the hours they work, or if they worklonger hours. The main measure, therefore, is output (GDP) perhour worked. The main advantage of this is it takes variations inthe number of hours worked per worker into account.

B C 4 1 4 0

Target 6.4Increase annual average real GDP growth from 3% p.a. in thelast decade to 5% p.a. for the next 30 years.

The GDP growth rate measures how fast an economy isgrowing. A strong Auckland economy means more jobs andmore money in more people’s pockets. It allows people,families and communities the freedom to pursue their ownprosperity, infrastructure such as roads and rail to be

improved, social services such as libraries and youth centres tobe expanded, and more amenities such as parks andcommunity halls to be developed. This in turn attracts moreskilled workers, businesses and investment.
