Illustration for Hauraki Gulf Marine Park Act 2000

You are applying for a resource consent for the Hauraki Gulf, its islands, and catchments. This applies if you made your application before the Hauraki Gulf Marine Park Act 2000 started, but it was not finalised before the Hauraki Gulf Marine Park Amendment Act 2001 started. You will follow the Resource Management Act 1991 as if the Hauraki Gulf Marine Park Act 2000 did not exist. You might have already started your application and it got sent back to a committee or court for more information. The Minister will look at your application as if it had not been sent back. A time period will start again from when the Hauraki Gulf Marine Park Amendment Act 2001 started, and this is based on the Resource Management Act 1991. The Minister's decision will be based on the information you provided, and they will consider it according to the rules. You can still appeal the decision if you are not happy with it. The appeal process will follow the Resource Management Act 1991.
