MEDIA RELEASE – 26 May 2023
Closing date for further submissions on Proposed Te Tai o Poutini Plan extended

An extension to the further submission period of Te Tai o Poutini Plan has been confirmed by the TTPP Committee at their meeting this week.

TTPP Committee Chair Rex Williams said an extension to 5pm, Friday 30 June 2023 was proposed to allow time to rectify a number of errors that had occurred during the collation of the summary of submissions.
“When Te Tai o Poutini Plan submissions closed in November 2022, the TTPP team lodged a total of 534 submissions with over 15,000 submission points. These submissions were collated into a Summary of Submissions document, and in April this year the TTPP Committee invited further submissions,”
“In the process of collating the documentation, a number of errors were unfortunately reported in the TTPP Summary of Submissions. These errors have resulted in the need for additional time to correct the Submission Summary documents and allow an additional period of time to lodge further submissions, the 10-day period is the minimum required by the Resource Management Act.” 
The Summary of Submissions will be updated to correct the errors in the documents and an email will go out to submitters when the corrected summaries are available. Staff will also add an errata table outlining the changes.  The submission numbers will not be affected and the corrected summary will be renotified.

Mr Williams said the Committee would like to thank everyone who has already lodged a further submission. 
“We value everyone’s input into the Plan process and would like to encourage people to make a further submission on any submission,” he said.
To make a further submission, you must state whether you support any part of a submission and if you wish to be heard. The Summary of Submissions can be found on the Te Tai o Poutini Plan website: www.ttpp.nz. There is also a link to the online portal for lodging a further submission.
