Protected Natural Areas Programme
Only one new survey for the Protected Natural Areas Programme will be carried out in the 1986-87 financial year due to Government funding cuts. One of the essential ingredients for environmental protection in New Zealand, the programme aims to establish a series of protected areas to preserve the country’s ecological diversity. It covers both public and private land. Meanwhile, however, reports on past surveys are slowly trickling out. Members interested in knowing what is special about their region can write to the Department of Lands and Survey, Private Bag, Wellington, for a copy of the Egmont (ring plain area) ecological region report ($8), and Otago’s Old Man ecological district report ($13).
