"Some permit deadlines cannot be extended or changed."

Illustration for Natural Environment Bill

You are looking at a proposed law change. If you are in charge of permits, you cannot give more time for some things. You cannot give more time to negotiate an aquaculture agreement under section 186ZM of the Fisheries Act 1996 or to process a permit for a wood processing or energy activity, as seen in section 139.
