EMA Member- Exclusive Forum: Hon. Shane Jones, Fuel Security Ministerial Oversight Group

You're invited to a forum with Hon. Shane Jones, New Zealand's Minister responsible for fuel security and a senior leader of the government's Fuel Security Ministerial Oversight Group, at the EMA Business Hub in Grafton on Thursday, 6 May. This newly-established group is leading the response to New Zealand's fuel supply and any escalating risks.

The EMA team is regularly in touch with the Ministry of Business, Innovation and Employment and the government ministers charged with managing fuel supplies during this challenging time. As we monitor developments in Iran and with the Strait of Hormuz closure, feedback from the business community shows 88% of leaders anticipate this will impact business activity levels in the near future.

At this Member-only forum, the Minister will provide you with the latest developments and the government's ongoing direction of travel. This is your opportunity to hear first-hand, timely updates on fuel security, understand the government's plans to address impacts on business and its operations, and to raise your questions to the Minister.

Event details:

Date and time: Wed 6 May, 12pm-2pm
Venue: EMA Business Hub, 145 Khyber Pass Road, Grafton
Includes Q&A time, followed by networking over a light lunch at 1pm
