396B: Notification of rule change affecting marine farming
or “ The government must tell people if they change rules about fish farms in the sea. ”

You could also call this:

“Explains what happens to requests for sea farming permits that were already sent in before the rules changed”

This part of the law used to talk about how to handle applications for marine farming leases that were already in progress. However, this section no longer applies. It was removed from the law on 1 January 2005. If you need information about marine farming leases, you should look at the current rules in the Resource Management Act 1991 or ask someone who knows about the latest laws on this topic.
