Policy
Tourism policy is about issues like:
-
use of the environment, fisheries and oceans as tourism resources
today, whilst protecting them for future generations,
-
providing appropriate tourist facilities and access to our country,
-
developing our culture and Maori heritage as tourist attractions,
while respecting their values,
and
-
planning for the development of the tourism industry and the
economy.
The Ministry of Tourism works to ensure there is an appropriate policy
environment to allow tourism to generate maximum benefits at minimum
costs. We analyse issues that have an impact on the New Zealand tourism
industry, provide advice to Government, and work with government
departments and agencies to make appropriate policies.
The pages in this section detail some of the issues that the Ministry
of Tourism works on. However, it is within our mandate to work in all
areas where there are tourism impacts and we welcome feedback on policy
areas we need to address, to: policy@tourism.govt.nz
