Illustration for Natural Environment Bill

You will be affected by sections 205 and 206 if you get a right to apply for a permit. This permit is for using a natural resource listed in section 223. You can get this right from a permit authority or the Minister responsible for aquaculture. You need to know what some words mean in these sections. A 'relevant permit' is the permit you are applying for. A 'right to apply' is a special right to apply for a permit to use a natural resource. This right can be exclusive or for preferential rights held by iwi. These sections apply if you get a right to apply through a market-based allocation process. This process is required or permitted by a national standard or a plan. It can also be given by the Minister responsible for aquaculture.
