Critics aren't convinced the Government's new mega-Ministry will work.
It's merging the environment, housing and urban development, and transport ministries into a new Ministry of Cities, Environment, Regions and Transport.
Right-wing think tank NZ Initiative executive director Oliver Hartwich says it will still report to the same number of ministers.

Hartwich says the ministries are busy with RMA reforms, which are taking up all their resources.
He says putting a super merger on top of that could be asking too much.
