The MAF consultation process
Consultation is an important part of MAF's work. Your experience and knowledge is vital to our work.
We provide advice to the Government about potential new policies and laws, and about implementing government decisions. The people who will be affected by new policies and law have a right to comment on them. You can have your say by participating in our consultations.
