396: Applications for marine farming in coastal marine area
or “Rules for asking permission to start fish farms in the sea were removed from the law.”

You could also call this:

“The law tells people when a special fishing permit has ended or been given up.”

This section of the law was about telling people when a permit for marine farming on the coast was no longer valid. It could have stopped being valid because it had run out of time, been cancelled, or given up by the person who had it. However, this part of the law is not used anymore. It was taken out of the Resource Management Act 1991 on 1 January 2005.
