165ZK: Application
or “This law explains when special rules apply to activities in the sea and coastal areas that people share.”

You could also call this:

“This part explains special words used when talking about rules for using the beach and sea”

In this part of the law, you’ll find some important terms explained. These terms are used when talking about using the common marine and coastal area.

A “concurrent application” is when you apply for something under section 165ZN at the same time as asking for a plan change.

A “plan change request” is when you ask to change a plan. This request must do two things:

  1. It needs to be made under clause 21 of Schedule 1 about a rule mentioned in section 165ZK.

  2. It should ask to allow aquaculture activities and make any other related changes.

Also, this plan change request needs to be made either at the same time as a concurrent application or with the idea of making a concurrent application soon.
