Regenerate Christchurch

Proposals to build new homes in an area of Christchurch's quake-hit red zone isn't fair to its old occupants, a former resident says.

The Children's Commissioner is calling for children to be more involved in Christchurch's rebuild, and says the government needs to do more to include them.

Recovery authorities promise all but one of Christchurch's anchor projects will be under construction this year, as the city's rebuild hits its stride.

The Christchurch City Council says it is important the group charged with redeveloping the city's red zoned land has the full confidence of the public.

A plan for tackling work in Christchurch's residential red zone has been laid out by the group tasked with redeveloping the quake-ravaged area.

The board of one of two organisations replacing the Canterbury Earthquake Recovery Authority has just been announced.

With the Canterbury Earthquake Recovery Authority about to officially shut, officials, politicians and residents are divided on the lessons learned.

Legislation setting up a new agency to oversee rebuilding in Christchurch should be announced within the next month, the city's mayor says.

Cantabrians have only two days left to have their say on the plan that will dictate the next five years of the region's earthquake recovery.
