This page is about a bill. That means that it's not the law yet, but some people want it to be the law. It could change quickly, and some of the information is just a draft.

Emergency Management Bill (No 2)

Emergency response and recovery: states of emergency and transition periods - Provisions applying to this Part - Application of Resource Management Act 1991

169: Restricted application of Resource Management Act 1991

"How emergencies affect the Resource Management Act rules"

Illustration for Emergency Management Bill (No 2)

If a state of emergency or transition period is declared under this proposed law, it affects how the Resource Management Act 1991 works. You need to know that the Resource Management Act 1991 still applies to emergency works, as stated in section 330B of that Act. This means the rules about emergency works in the Resource Management Act 1991 are still followed.
