New Zealand law explained for everyone

Resource Management Act 1991

Duties and restrictions under this Act - Effect of certain changes to plans

19: Certain rules in proposed plans to be operative

You could also call this:

“Some rules in proposed plans can start working right away, even before the whole plan is approved.”

This section of the law has been removed. It used to be about making certain rules in proposed plans become active, but it’s no longer part of the Resource Management Act 1991. The government took this part out on 1 October 2009 when they made changes to make the law simpler and easier to follow. If you want to know more about why they removed it, you can look at section 18 of the Resource Management (Simplifying and Streamlining) Amendment Act 2009.
