Resource consents - Decisions on applications relating to discharge of greenhouse gases

107C: Circumstances when written approval for resource consent required from holder of customary rights order

You could also call this:

“When people with special rights to coastal areas need to agree before someone can do things that might harm the environment”

This part of the law used to talk about when you needed written approval from someone who had a customary rights order to get a resource consent. However, this section has been removed from the law. It was taken out on 1 April 2011 by another law called the Marine and Coastal Area (Takutai Moana) Act 2011. This means that this specific rule no longer applies, and you don’t need to worry about it anymore when thinking about resource consents.
