This is great news, and something that should have been done a long time ago. Also, fuck Fletcher building.

I like the sound of this so far.

It's not mentioned in this article, but on the Herald:

“We’re also cutting red tape and costs on farmers building small dams by raising the height threshold for safety regulations from one to four metres,” Penk said.

Which gets a bit "Hmm.." from me. Seems like a big jump to not have safety regulations for

Four metres is pretty bloody high actually.
