124: References to public foreshore and seabed

You could also call this:

"What 'public foreshore and seabed' now means under this law"

Illustration for Marine and Coastal Area (Takutai Moana) Act 2011

When this Act starts, you will see that references to the public foreshore and seabed are now about the common marine and coastal area. This change happens unless a specific part of the public foreshore and seabed is excluded from the common marine and coastal area under this Act. You should note that this change does not apply to documents used in court cases that started under the Foreshore and Seabed Act 2004.
