Resource Management Act 1991

Environmental Protection Authority

42B: Establishment of Environmental Protection Authority

You could also call this:

“A group was created to help protect the environment, but it doesn't exist anymore.”

The Environmental Protection Authority was once established under this section of the law. However, this part of the law is no longer in effect. It was removed on 1 July 2011 by another law called the Resource Management Amendment Act 2011. This means that the Environmental Protection Authority is now set up under different rules.
