"Changes to the law about reducing waste in New Zealand"

The law about waste minimisation is being changed. You will see some changes to the Waste Minimisation Act 2008. Some parts of the law are being removed, like sections 77 and 78. The law is also being updated to include some rules from the Search and Surveillance Act 2012.

When an enforcement officer wants to enter a house, they need to get a special permit. You can read more about this in section 3 of the Search and Surveillance Act 2012. An issuing officer can give this permit.

Some words in the law are being changed, like "judicial officer" to "issuing officer". You can find more information about this in section 80 of the Waste Minimisation Act 2008. The rules from the Search and Surveillance Act 2012 will apply to these permits.
