Panel Discussion: Exploring the implications and opportunities of the EU-NZ Free Trade Agreement for the construction industry in New Zealand

We now have an FTA agreement in place with Europe, and the government has signalled that it intends to open the market for building products in New Zealand.

The panel will discuss what barriers to entry need to be removed to allow this to happen. And how do we protect building owners and ratepayers from the next leaky building debacle.

Panel includes:

  • Moderator: Monique Surges - CEO, NZ German Chamber of Commerce 
  • Sarah Johal - Senior Policy Officer, NZ-EU FTA Implementation Lead, Ministry of Foreign Affairs & Trade
  • Charlotte Robertson - Senior Associate, Litigation & Dispute Resolution, Construction Sector, Hesketh Henry 
  • James Lewis - Senior Associate, Litigation & Dispute Resolution, Construction Sector, Hesketh Henry 
  • Dr Chris Litten - General Manager, Research, BRANZ 
  • Ken Pridham - Commercial Director, Starke
