You must follow other laws when using this Act. You need to comply with other legislation when performing a function or exercising a power under this Act. You also need to get permits or permissions required by other laws. You can still get recognition of protected customary rights under the Marine and Coastal Area (Takutai Moana) Act 2011. This Act does not limit your ability to do this, except for subpart 1 of Part 2. You can find more information about the Marine and Coastal Area (Takutai Moana) Act 2011 at the legislation website.
