Strypey"The majority of the 22,821 submissions on last year’s consultation on a potential Regulatory Standards Bill weren’t even read by the Ministry for Regulation before proposals on next steps were taken to Cabinet."<a href="https://mastodon.nzoss.nz/tags/MarcDaalder" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#MarcDaalder</a>, 2025<a href="https://newsroom.co.nz/2025/05/19/thousands-of-regulatory-standards-bill-submissions-not-read-by-ministry/" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank">https://newsroom.co.nz/2025/05/19/thousands-of-regulatory-standards-bill-submissions-not-read-by-ministry/</a>Just remember the call for submissions over the holidays was just a box-ticking Ministry of Disregulation consultation.

Bob LeFridge :tinoflag:We can't let the Atlas Network set NZ policy. It only takes ten minutes to make a submission on the Regulatory Standards Bill and there are only two boxes to fill in.1. Under 'comments' make sure you state clearly that "I oppose the Regulatory Standards bill." You might mention the extraordinary amount of power the bill would give to one Minister (who has serious connections to the Atlas Network). And your thoughts on taxpayers being expected to compensate extractive corporates for loss of profits, when those companies are operating sunset industries and destroying our environment.2. Under 'recommendations' again reinforce that the Bill and its proposed updates should be rejected. You might also want to add a line opposing a money-wasting referendum.That's it. Go for it! Submissions close 1.00pm, Monday, 23 June 2025.<a href="https://www.parliament.nz/en/pb/sc/make-a-submission/document/54SCFIN_SCF_E22299B3-B67B-4F74-023D-08DD9688D2C5/regulatory-standards-bill" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank">https://www.parliament.nz/en/pb/sc/make-a-submission/document/54SCFIN_SCF_E22299B3-B67B-4F74-023D-08DD9688D2C5/regulatory-standards-bill</a> <a href="https://mastodon.nz/@pezmico" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@pezmico</a> <a href="https://mastodon.nz/tags/RegulatoryStandardsBill" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#RegulatoryStandardsBill</a>

Jeremy Buffer Jones :tinoflag:This is not how democracy functions <a href="https://mastodon.nz/tags/DavidSeymour" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#DavidSeymour</a>. You cannot use AI to analyse <a href="https://mastodon.nz/tags/RegulatoryStandardsBill" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#RegulatoryStandardsBill</a> submissions and discard all submissions opposing your anti democratic and treasonous bill because you consider all opposition to your BS Bill to be political activism. Seymour said he supported Parliament and government departments using technology to separate out “political activism from people who have a genuine contribution to make about the discussion of the bill”. <a href="https://mastodon.nz/tags/NZPol" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#NZPol</a>

Jeremy Buffer Jones :tinoflag:So do you suppose David Seymour's <a href="https://mastodon.nz/tags/Act" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Act</a> Party were so keen to have Te Pāti Māori MP's jailed for performing a <a href="https://mastodon.nz/tags/haka" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#haka</a> because they didn't want them present as Seymour & Act attempt to rush their undemocratic and treacherous <a href="https://mastodon.nz/tags/RegulatoryStandardsBill" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#RegulatoryStandardsBill</a> through parliament under urgency?

Lin NahThousands of Regulatory Standards Bill submissions not read by ministry. David Seymour said ‘there just weren’t that many’ worthwhile ideas in the 23,000 submissions on his proposed legislation <a href="https://newsroom.co.nz/2025/05/19/thousands-of-regulatory-standards-bill-submissions-not-read-by-ministry/" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank">https://newsroom.co.nz/2025/05/19/thousands-of-regulatory-standards-bill-submissions-not-read-by-ministry/</a> 19 May 2025. Paywalled How does he know without reading them if they were worthwhile or not? Were the submissions he read representative of 23,000 submissions submitted? Do we know which were read? How many of the 939 did David Seymour read? How do we know the summary of 4% read accurately summarises the 23000 submissions?

Strypey"Why should I care? [The Regulatory Standards Bill] is the twin to the Treaty Principles Bill. So much so that you can use your submission for that bill as the template to this one. It has been described as: The ‘dangerous’ bill flying under the radar and 'arguably one of the most regressive and dangerous Bills ever considered'."<a href="https://emilywrites.substack.com/p/ok-fine-what-submissions-do-i-have" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank">https://emilywrites.substack.com/p/ok-fine-what-submissions-do-i-have</a>Consultation closes this Monday, 13 January 2025.<a href="https://mastodon.nzoss.nz/tags/RSB" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#RSB</a> <a href="https://mastodon.nzoss.nz/tags/RegulatoryStandardsBill" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#RegulatoryStandardsBill</a> <a href="https://mastodon.nzoss.nz/tags/TPB" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#TPB</a> <a href="https://mastodon.nzoss.nz/tags/TreatyPrinciplesBill" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#TreatyPrinciplesBill</a>

StrypeyNow I need to get my head around the Regulatory Standards Bill. Any idea off the top of your head when submissions open/close for that one?<a href="https://cloudisland.nz/@heyrochelle" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@heyrochelle</a> <a href="https://mastodon.nz/@AnneleiseHall" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@AnneleiseHall</a> <a href="https://mastodon.nzoss.nz/tags/RSB" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#RSB</a> <a href="https://mastodon.nzoss.nz/tags/RegulatoryStandardsBill" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#RegulatoryStandardsBill</a>

ko kāihe toku ingoa 🫏Has anyone tried to make a submission on the <a href="https://mastodon.nz/tags/RegulatoryStandardsBill" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#RegulatoryStandardsBill</a>? That Ministry of Regulation has made the questions so detailed and specific that I couldn't even figure out what they were asking! At one point they were asking about examples of Regulatory Impact Statements you'd dealt with.It's like the only people who could make a submission are people in the regulatory industry. Feels like they've done that on purpose.
