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.

Offshore Renewable Energy Bill

Administration and enforcement - Administration - Safety zone officers

109: Safety zone officers

You could also call this:

"Who can be in charge of keeping people safe near offshore renewable energy sites"

Illustration for Offshore Renewable Energy Bill

The proposed law says who can be a safety zone officer. You will be considered a safety zone officer if you are a police constable. You will also be a safety zone officer if you are in charge of a New Zealand Defence Force ship. Additionally, if you are acting under the command of someone in charge of a New Zealand Defence Force ship, you will be a safety zone officer too.
