New Zealand law explained for everyone

Resource Management Act 1991

Occupation of common marine and coastal area

165AB: Establishment of aquaculture management areas

You could also call this:

“This law used to set rules for where fish farms could be in the sea, but it's not used anymore.”

This part of the law was about setting up areas for managing aquaculture, which is like farming in the water. It was part of the rules for using the common marine and coastal areas that belong to everyone. However, this section of the law doesn’t apply anymore. It was removed on 1 October 2011 by another law that changed the Resource Management Act.
