Regional Council and DOC Alliance

Stuff reports
<http://www.stuff.co.nz/dominion-post/news/6260834/Regional-councils-join-forces>
that Greater Wellington, Hawke's Bay and Horizons regional councils, and
DOC have agreed to explore a strategic alliance around science and
technical information and capability sharing, biodiversity and
biosecurity, regional park management and community engagement.

This confirms the growing view that planning for biodiversity data
systems should aim to meet common needs across local government and DOC
if not NGOs as well.
