114: Application relating to area where group seeks customary marine title

You could also call this:

"Applying for planning consent in areas with customary marine title claims"

Illustration for Planning Bill

If you apply for a planning consent in an area where a group is seeking customary marine title, you must follow the rules in section 62A of the Marine and Coastal Area (Takutai Moana) Act 2011. This means you need to notify the groups, give a list of who you told, and record their thoughts. You have to do this, or your application will be treated as incomplete. The term "applicant group" in this section has the same meaning as in section 9(1) of the Marine and Coastal Area (Takutai Moana) Act 2011.
