National Party leader Christopher Luxon on why a National government would repeal the Three Waters reform. A last-minute clause in the controversial Three Waters bill, voted through hastily by the Government and Green Party last week, has been called “a real danger” to New Zealand’s constitution by a leading legal expert. The change to the bill means any future law change allowing public water assets to be sold would require a vote of 60% of Parliament or a successful public referendum. Labour's Three Waters reform has no such agreement – it has been among the most contentious of its policies. Iain McGregor/Stuff Green Party local government spokesperson Eugenie Sage introduced an order paper to include an entrenchment provision in the Three Waters bill.
