46E: Failure to cease conducting air operations in New Zealand

You could also call this:

"Breaking the rules by not stopping air operations when told"

If you don't stop doing air operations in New Zealand when you're told to, you're breaking the law. This is about following the rules in section 11C(3). If you break this law, you can get in trouble. If you're a person, you might have to pay up to $10,000. If you're a company, you might have to pay up to $100,000. This is to make sure everyone follows the rules and keeps air operations safe in New Zealand.
