Action and Alliance
Tai Tokerau Northland Economic Action Plan
The Tai Tokerau Northland Economic Action Plan was jointly launched by the Minister of Economic Development Steven Joyce, the Minister for Primary Industries Nathan Guy, the Minister for Maori Development Te Ururoa Flavell and David Wilson, CEO of Northland Inc. in February 2016. The Action Plan is based on the opportunities outlined in the Tai Tokerau Northland Growth Study with a 10-year horizon that will contribute to transforming Northland's economy. A revised Action Plan was released in mid-2019 with six work streams: Logistics and infrastructure, Digital, Skills and Capability, Land and Water, Visitor Industry and High Value Manufacturing. It will evolve as projects are realised and others come online.
