569: Consultation

You could also call this:

"The FMA must talk to people who will be affected before making a big decision."

Illustration for Financial Markets Conduct Act 2013

When the Financial Markets Authority (FMA) wants to issue a notice, they must talk to the people who will be affected by it. The FMA thinks about who will be substantially affected and consults with them before issuing the notice. You can find more information about similar rules in the past by looking at the Securities Amendment Act 1978. If the FMA forgets to consult with the people who will be affected, the notice is still valid. The FMA's failure to consult does not change the notice's validity. This means the notice still applies even if the FMA made a mistake by not talking to the affected people.
