Dig, baby, dig? Does Shane Jones' case to mine more of NZ add up? | Q+A 2024
Regional Development and Resources Minister Shane Jones says he's "tired" of the voices opposing more mining in New Zealand, saying "they're fighting a war that's no longer relevant".
He says mining could benefit the communities of West Coast, Otago, and Coromandel in particular, though he was questioned about whether the economic benefits were enough to justify the negative impact on the environment.
As Fisheries Minister, Jones also talked about cameras on fishing boats.
