The Government has today started the process of overturning the ban on oil and gas exploration.
Resource Minister Shane Jones says the Government is still committed to transitioning to renewable energy - but it can't be done at a cost of hollowing out jobs.
Jones says some companies are a bit fearful in case the Government changes - but he's willing to convince them.
"The bill's got some robust protections - it's a transparent process."
