This cabinet paper sets out a three-level framework to guide government's future engagement with sectors:
- whole-of-government engagement involving all appropriate agencies to develop a sector led strategy in partnership with the sector,
- ongoing "business as usual" engagement through the delivery agencies (NZTE, FRST and TEC), and
- issue specific engagement.
This paper focuses on the first level, whole-of-government engagement, which aims to help the sector develop a clear vision of how it might improve its sustainable economic growth. Because raising the rate of sustainable economic growth requires all sectors to contribute to higher growth, the government will, over time, engage with all "economically significant sectors" i.e. all sectors which do, or could potentially, make a substantial contribution to sustainable economic growth based on their contribution to GDP, potential to grow and the value they can add across a range of other sectors.
