New Zealand report advises against buy-outs for weather-damaged homes, proposes 20-year transition.
New recommendations from an independent group advise the New Zealand government on climate adaptation, suggesting homeowners shouldn't expect buy-outs if their properties are damaged by weather events, with a 20-year transition period.
While the report includes measures like improving hazard risk information and council planning, the Environmental Defence Society highlights gaps, such as the lack of plans to prevent development in high-risk areas and managed retreat options.
The group aims to work with the government on refining these proposals into legislation.
