Resource Management Act 1991

Proposals of national significance

141B: Minister's power to call in matters that are or are part of proposals of national significance

You could also call this:

“The Minister can step in and make decisions about important projects that affect the whole country.”

This section of the law has been removed. It used to be about the Minister’s power to call in matters that are or are part of proposals of national significance. The power to call in matters means the Minister could decide to handle important national issues directly. However, this part of the law no longer exists. It was taken out on 1 October 2009 by another law that changed how resource management works in New Zealand.
