Annual Report

The Annual Report 2024-25 highlights a year of strong community engagement, environmental achievements, and strategic partnerships, against a backdrop of national reform and change.

Environment Southland Chairman Nicol Horrell said the Council has remained focused on delivering its work programmes.

“This year has been one of regulatory change, nationally and regionally. Despite the challenges, we’ve stayed on track, working alongside our community and partners to make a difference.”

The Council achieved 22 of our 34 performance targets, one had no target for this year and for the 11 not achieved, often the majority of the criteria were met or the target was only narrowly missed.
