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.

Natural Environment Bill

Key roles - Transfer and delegation of powers - Joint management agreements

238: Effect of joint management agreement

You could also call this:

"What happens when a joint management agreement is made with a regional council"

Illustration for Natural Environment Bill

If a joint management agreement is made, you need to know that any decisions made under this agreement are treated as decisions made by the regional council. This means the decision has legal effect, just like a decision made directly by the regional council. You can think of it as the regional council making the decision, even if it was made jointly with others.
