Resource Management Act 1991

Standards, policy statements, and plans - Local authority policy statements and plans - Review

79A: Local authority not required to commence full plan review after Natural and Built Environment Act 2023 receives Royal assent

You could also call this:

"Councils don't have to start a big review of their plans when a new law about the environment is approved."

This provision used to be about what local authorities needed to do when reviewing their plans after a new law was passed. However, this part of the law has been removed. It no longer applies, so you don't need to worry about it anymore. If you want to know more about why it was removed, you can look at section 6 of a different law that made changes to this one.
