The Green Party is delighted the world class Karori Wildlife Sanctuary will receive a funding boost, following the announcement from the Government. "The Karori Sanctuary is an incredible asset to Wellington, to the region and to New Zealand," says Green Party MP Sue Kedgley. "It is great news that the Sanctuary, its many supporters and the Government have been able to overcome the initial growing pains surrounding the Significant Community Based Projects Fund, and see the way clear to fund this exceedingly significant project.
"The establishment of the visitors centre will help preserve a significant slice of New Zealand's ecological heritage and establish Wellington as an eco tourism centre. "I'd like to congratulate Marian Hobbs for her perseverance in this matter. I know it has not always been easy, but the money will enhance an already outstanding regional jewel.
