3A: Person acting under resource consent with permission
or “Rules about doing things allowed by a resource consent apply to people who have permission from the consent holder”

You could also call this:

“Rules about how things change or stay the same when the law is updated”

The law says that Schedule 12 of this Act contains special rules about how to handle changes in the law. These rules are called transitional, savings, and related provisions. You need to follow these rules exactly as they are written in Schedule 12. These rules help make sure that when the law changes, everything works smoothly and fairly for everyone involved.
