We recently completed a submission on the Christchurch City Council draft Annual Plan 2023-24. A key theme in our submission is that we would like to see a firm commitment from the Council that it recognises the acute pressures currently facing business, and a reflection of this in all aspects of the annual plan. We would also like to see a far greater effort in positioning Christchurch as an attractive and competitive city both domestically and internationally, for businesses and employers, and a greater acknowledgement of the fundamental role businesses play in the economic and social fabric of our city.
