“There are one million recreational fishers in New Zealand [and] 250,000 people who actively hunt, and many of them will feel they’ve never had a voice around the Cabinet table.

“It’s an opportunity now to make sure that the things that are important to them are not only heard [but] can be delivered in a future National government.”
