Resource Management Act 1991

Duties and restrictions under this Act - Coastal marine area

12A: Restrictions on aquaculture activities in coastal marine area and on other activities in aquaculture management areas

You could also call this:

“Rules about where you can grow sea animals and what else you can do in those areas were removed from the law.”

You can’t do aquaculture activities in the coastal marine area anymore. There were also rules about other activities in aquaculture management areas, but these rules have been removed. The government took away this part of the law on 1 October 2011. If you want to know more about why they did this, you can look at section 5 of the Resource Management Amendment Act (No 2) 2011.
