Auckland Council was involved in a legal case against All Aboard Aotearoa (AAA), which asked for a judicial review of the Council Planning Committee’s decision to endorse Auckland Transport’s Regional Land Transport Plan (RLTP).
The RLTP aims for a mere one percent reduction in transport emissions by 2031, conflicting with the 64 percent reduction required by the Council’s Te Tāruke-ā-Tāwhiri: Auckland’s Climate Plan.
A CCO Review found that the Planning Committee had the right not to endorse the RLTP, yet they did not exercise this right.
