Illustration for Hauraki Gulf Marine Park Act 2000

You can be part of the Hauraki Gulf Forum. The Forum can do other activities if most of its members agree. They must also have one or more parties agree to pay for the activity beforehand. If the costs are not agreed, the Forum cannot do the activity. You need to know that if costs are not sorted out, the activity will not happen. The Forum's members can still take action and enforce agreements they make. This rule does not apply to some administrative tasks. The Forum has its own rules to follow, like the ones in section 18(2)(e) and section 19. These rules help the Forum make decisions and do its job. The Forum's decisions are important for the Hauraki Gulf Marine Park.
