Illustration for Lawyers and Conveyancers Act 2006

You need to register changes to rules with the Registrar of Companies. The New Zealand Law Society or the New Zealand Society of Conveyancers must do this after changing or replacing rules that section 100 applies to. They must send a copy of the changes to the Registrar of Companies within 14 days. You must also register changes made by the Minister under section 104. The Minister must send a copy of the changes to the Registrar of Companies. This must be done within 14 days of the changes being published under the Legislation Act 2019. The Registrar of Companies is based in Wellington. You must comply with these rules to register changes to rules. This helps keep rules up to date and available to everyone.
