For years, New Zealand has spent big on infrastructure without always getting the results to match. 

Now, the Government's vowing to change that.

It’s supporting all 16 recommendations in the Infrastructure Commission's National Plan – a blueprint for how the country plans, funds, and delivers the things we all rely on. 

The 30-year plan includes a review of the Land Transport Fund and requires Crown entities to publish long-term investment plans.

Labour and the Greens are also backing it -- but the question remains whether this is the beginning of real reform, or just another ambitious plan on paper.

Today on The Front Page, Infrastructure NZ Chief Executive Nick Leggett joins us to discuss what it all means.
