Illustration for Hauraki Gulf Marine Park Act 2000

You have a Deed of Recognition. This deed does not change how people use their powers or do their jobs under other laws. You must not consider the Deed of Recognition when making decisions under other laws. It also does not change the rights of anyone, and it does not give anyone new rights to an area, as explained in section 44(3)(d) and section 45.
