Illustration for Reserves and Other Lands Disposal Act 1970

You are looking at a law that changes the status of some land in New Zealand. This land was set apart under the Forests Act 1949. Now it will be Crown land under the Land Act 1948. You need to know which land is affected by this change. The law lists specific areas of land in different parts of the country. These areas are in the North Auckland, South Auckland, Hawke's Bay, Taranaki, Wellington, Nelson, Canterbury, and Otago Land Districts. The law describes each area of land and how much land is in each area. It also says which plans and surveys show the boundaries of each area. You can find more details about each area in the plans and surveys mentioned in the law.
