The idea of a majority government simply granting itself the unbridled power to establish by regulation
special economic zones of be a geographic area(s) that could include one or more projects of critical or strategic importance; presumably as determined by the minister or premier or committee? Zones could vary significantly in size, from a small parcel of land to a large area and once set up, projects in the zone with reliable proponents that meet high standards for operation, safety, and the environment (as determined by whom) can benefit from things like: faster permitting, streamlining some permits and approvals, simplified requirements and priority access to one-window services all in the name of hurried approvals.
Might I remind you of the old adage haste makes waste. In this case it could be haste makes wasteland.
