Re-Build Rural

Housing is often cheaper in rural areas, with much of the infrastructure already in place. But due to neo-liberalistion in the 1980’s New Zealand lost its rural manufacturing and production which created urban drift. To create ‘rural drift’, the Outdoors Party will help people gain access to blocks of land around conservation blocks, on farms, in rural towns and areas needing man-power for pest and weed control, regenerative farming, forestry or other enterprise. We will decentralize government departments so there are jobs where people want to live.

We will create a straight forward pathway for ‘rural drift’ so people can go back to living in the country.
