133A: Minor corrections of resource consents

You could also call this:

“Fixing small mistakes in your resource consent”

If you get a resource consent, the consent authority can make small changes to it within 20 working days. They can fix minor mistakes or defects in the consent by issuing an amended consent. You will get an updated version of your resource consent with the corrections.

The consent authority can do this on their own, without you asking them to make the changes. They are allowed to make these minor corrections to make sure your resource consent is accurate. This helps ensure that your consent is correct and up to date.
