Farmers are keeping an eye on how some aspects of Resource Management Act reforms will work in practice. The Government's new framework for planning includes new acts around development of land and on protection of the natural environment. It also includes greater property rights – including allowing landowners to seek compensation against unjustified restrictions on their land. But Federated Farmers RMA spokesperson Mark Hooper told Andrew Dickens it's important local voices take precedence. However, he says there's a good line being developed regarding proposing each individual district have its own plan. LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

On the Early Edition with Ryan Bridge Full Show Podcast for Friday the 23rd of August, All Blacks assistant coach Leon MacDonald has left the team a week before they head to South Africa - what does it mean for the team? Ruby commentator Tony Johnson talks to Ryan.  It's the final day of the Democratic National Convention where Kamala Harris will formerly accept the Democratic nomination for President. We're live to Chicago for the latest.  More changes for the Resources Management Act, but will it make thing easier for our farmers? Mark Hooper from Federated Farmers joins the show to give his thoughts.  Get the Early Edition with Ryan Bridge Full Show Podcast every weekday on iHeartRadio, or wherever you get your podcasts.  LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

There's relief over imminent changes to resource management rules on private farmland.   The Government has announced a second amendment to the Resource Management Act, which will set new national directions for areas such as infrastructure, energy, and farming.  Federated Farmers resource management spokesperson Mark Hooper told Ryan Bridge this change is less significant than the first but gives more freedom to the primary sector.   He says the fact the government is addressing specific concerns within the highly productive land national policy statement is good to see.  LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Federated Farmers is urging the Government to pick up the pace with replacing the RMA system.   The percentage of applications processed within statutory time frames is falling, from 89% in 2020-2021, to a record low of 76% the next year.   Federated Farmers RMA reform spokesperson Mark Hooper told Mike Hosking that the Government is taking it seriously, but the window is narrowing.   He says the data highlights the urgency and replacing the RMA is the most meaningful long term economic reform the government could deliver for them.  LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Farmers see RMA reform as common sense returning to the farm gate.  Changes across farming, water, and mining will be introduced to Parliament next month.    Federated Farmers RMA spokesperson Mark Hooper says farmers already have good systems in place.   He told Mike Hosking they have farm environment plans which show where the risk factors are and a winter grazing plan, which tells them actions to take, in the case of adverse events.  Hooper says having an additional piece of paper doesn't add any value in terms of environmental outcomes.  LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

On the Mike Hosking Breakfast Full Show Podcast for Wednesday 24th of April, we finally have some common sense being brought to the RMA. Federated Farmers' Mark Hooper gave some insight on the response from farmers.

Lead author Doctor Mariska Mannes joined to unpack the findings.

Federated Farmers says it's concerned about the Ministry for the Environment handing out money to encourage participation in reform of the Resource Management Act. The advocacy group claims it's been offered $600,000 over three years to fund submissions and appearances at hearings. Spokesperson Mark Hooper says it's a high price tag and the timing doesn't make sense. "Why try and push this through in the six-week leadup to a general election, when we know that there's opposition parties that are talking about repealing some of these reforms?" The Ministry has been approached for comment. LISTEN ABOVESee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

As the countries on Britain continue to chart different political courses, could a new federal United Kingdom provide a solution that could persuade independence supporters and centralising unionists that there is enough common ground to build a sustainable future for the UK? The Liberal Democrats and the new British Labour leadership think so.

Hey guys! Welcome to another episode of the #IDPodcast! This week we have the pleasure and the privilege to present you guys the interview we did with Xero at the #latinotaxfest. We got the chance to speak to Jackeline Velez and Daniel Gallagher (who both work with me here in Houston), Mark Hooper (visiting from Australia), and Jordan Cooper (Senior Account Manager in Florida). So what is Xero? Well at first glance Xero is a cloud accounting software. But when you start to use it you realize it is much more than that. It is a full platform for accountants, bookkeepers, and anyone in the accounting industry to use. I started using Xero about a year ago and realized how much it could do and I can honestly say it has revolutionized my firm. The communities, the training, the help, everything that they do to empower us has helped me level up my firm. I get to talk to the Xero crew about what is Xero and exactly how they are helping the industry and how they want to empower the accounting industry and the #latinx community. We have a great conversation about the industry and how Xero has helped us. We get insights from Mark who is from the Australian market and Will Lopez who is a user of Xero and a big advocate of cloud accounting and Xero. Y'all. This is an awesome episode for those of you guys that want to learn about Xero and see exactly what it is and what they are doing. If you liked this episode then please like, subscribe, and share!!
