Forest & Bird wants farm plans scrapped from freshwater reforms
Nine organisations including Forest & Bird, Greenpeace, and Fish and Game say the Government's freshwater reforms reward the highest polluters, and there need to be clear rules for farmers when it comes to pollution. Today is the last day for submissions on the freshwater action plan, which will impose tighter controls on land intensification and tougher limits for nitrogen leaching. Martin Taylor the chief executive of Fish and Game speaks to Susie in our Wellington studio.
