Big changes to consenting processes could be on the way.
Currently, 67 building consent authorities receive and approve consents – with each one taking a slightly different approach to the rules.
Building and construction minister Chris Penk has proposed creating larger regional authorities to help standardise the process and reduce costs for builders.
