The Government has kicked the can down the road on the replacement Interislander ferries, by setting up a company to begin a procurement process, rather than making a decision. But they have made a decision when it comes to greyhound racing, banning the sport over the next 20 months. The PSA are taking legal action against the Government over its working from home guidelines. In climate news, the newly released emissions reduction plan is still not on track to meet the crucial emissions budget for 2031-2035.
