If you are applying for something under the Resource Management Act, the authority in charge may ask you to provide evidence before the hearing. You must give them this evidence at least 10 working days before the hearing. If someone has made a submission and wants to use expert evidence, they may also be asked to provide evidence before the hearing. They must give the evidence at least 5 working days before the hearing. The authority can give you directions on what to do, and you must follow them to provide the evidence on time.
