In September 2002, Cabinet agreed in principle to integrate the services currently provided by Trade New Zealand and Industry New Zealand to better support the development of internationally competitive businesses in New Zealand [CAB Min (02) 24/2 refers]. In November 2002, Cabinet agreed to the initial service range proposed by the Boards of Industry New Zealand and Trade New Zealand, consisting of three broad groups of services: enabling, foundation, and growth services. Cabinet also directed officials to report back on detailed service content and delivery [CAB Min (02) 30/4 refers].
