Fire and Emergency New Zealand (Levy) Amendment Bill

Bills are proposals to make a new law or to change an existing one. Only Parliament can pass a bill. Each bill goes through several stages, giving MPs and the public the chance to have their say.

The policy objectives of this bill are to ensure that the insurance-based levy framework for Fire and Emergency New Zealand is simple to implement to minimise disruption and compliance costs, and adheres to the funding principles in section 80 of the principal Act.
