ACT New Zealand Climate Change Spokesman John Boscawen will continue his campaign to defer the Government’s implementation of the Emissions Trading Scheme, and will hold a number of public meetings in the Waikato and Taranaki regions.
“These meetings are an opportunity for members of the public to learn just how much the ETS will cost them and their families – as well as the cost to our farmers, businesses and exporters,” Mr Boscawen said.
