Work on the quake-damaged cathedral has been on hold since 2024.
Christchurch City Council will contribute an extra $15 million to the rebuild of Christ Church Cathedral, as long as the government and the Anglican Church do the same.
The rebuild of the earthquake-damaged cathedral has been on hold since 2024 because of a $45 million funding shortfall.
The council money depends on the Crown also contributing at least $15 million and the church showing it can complete the project, which was revised to $219 million after costs blew out to $248 million.
