343: Discharges from ships

You could also call this:

"This law used to talk about stuff that ships let out into the water, but it's not used anymore."

This section of the law, called 'Discharges from ships', was part of the Resource Management Act 1991. It talked about offences related to things that ships let out into the water. However, this part of the law doesn't exist anymore. It was removed on 20 August 1998 by another law that changed the Resource Management Act. This means that the rules about discharges from ships that were once in this section no longer apply.
