Submissions

VNZI advocates for vegetable growers on a range of central and local Government consultations in several key ways:

1. VNZI writes a submission to make a direct point on a piece of policy, regulation or legislation on behalf of our members
2. We act as a supporting body of Horticulture New Zealand's submission
3. We support other vegetable product groups such as the Pukekohe Vegetable Growers Association, Onions New Zealand, Tomatoes New Zealand or Rural Contractors Association, in writing a submission
4. VNZI commissions an expert authority, such as Market Access Solutionz, to write a technical submission on our behalf for growers.

In writing a submission, VNZI requests time in front of the relevant select committee to highlight our position before final consultation is completed.
