Illustration for Resource Management Act 1991

You need to know about reviews of coastal permits. By 30 September 2027, the consent authority must start a review of the permit. They must tell the parties involved, as described in section 165ZZG, about the review. You can make a written submission on the review, including suggesting new or modified conditions for the permit, as explained in section 165ZZH. The review must not stop the holder from managing and operating port related commercial undertakings. It must be done efficiently and cause as little disruption as possible. The consent authority cannot tell the public about the review or hold a hearing on the submissions. They must finish the review and make a decision within 2 years of starting it.
