The law says that some parts of the Oranga Tamariki Act 1989 do not change the Immigration Act 2009. You can still follow the Immigration Act 2009, except for the parts that are about committing offences, which are in sections 342 to 354. The sections in the Oranga Tamariki Act 1989, from sections 214 to 243, do not limit or affect the rest of the Immigration Act 2009, which you can find on the Immigration Act 2009 page, and the specific sections 342 to 354 can be found here.

Nothing in sections 214 to 243 limits or affects any provision of the Immigration Act 2009 other than sections 342 to 354 (offence provisions) of that Act.
