CZ 26B: Land and buildings affected by North Island adverse weather event—sections CB 6A and CB 9 to CB 11 overridden for local authority and Crown purchases

You could also call this:

“Tax rules don't apply when selling flood-damaged property to government or council”

If your land or buildings were damaged by a North Island bad weather event, you don’t have to worry about certain tax rules when you sell them to the government or your local council. The rules that usually apply to income from selling land (CB 6A and CB 9 to CB 11) won’t affect you in this case. This means you can sell your damaged property to these official groups without having to think about those specific tax laws.
