Racing Industry Act 2020

Preliminary provisions

8: Act binds the Crown

You could also call this:

“The government must follow this law just like everyone else”

This Act applies to the Crown. This means that the Racing Industry Act 2020 affects the government and all its parts, just like it affects everyone else. The Crown can’t ignore this law or act as if it doesn’t exist. You can think of it as the government following the same rules it sets for others when it comes to racing in New Zealand.
