The Minister for the Environment is seeking nominations for Waste Advisory Board members, including a chair.
The Waste Advisory Board provides independent advice to the minister on matters relating to the Waste Minimisation Act 2008.
In appointing members, the minister must consider the need for the board to have collective knowledge, skills and experience relating to:
• the Act
• matters likely to come before the board
• community projects for waste minimisation
• industry, including the commercial waste industry
• tikanga Māori
Board members should collectively possess these skills and knowledge but note that no single prospective candidate is expected to possess all of these skills and knowledge.
The board meets four or five times per year for either a full day or half day.
Email your nomination to nominations@mfe.govt.nz by 5pm on Friday May 31 2024.
