213: Secretary may request emissions information from New Zealand operator

You could also call this:

"The government can ask NZ airlines for information about the pollution they make."

If you are a New Zealand operator and do not already follow the rules in this part of the law, this section applies to you. The Secretary can ask you for information about your emissions, which is prescribed in the regulations. You have to give the Secretary this information by the time they specify, and it must meet the requirements in the regulations. The Secretary wants this information to check if you need to follow the other rules in this part of the law. You must provide the emissions information as requested, so the Secretary can monitor your emissions and decide what you need to do next.
