Aquaculture Reforms Paper F

Transition to New Aquaculture Regime

Document format: pdf

Publisher: New Zealand Office of the Minister for the Environment

Creation date: 2001

This paper proposes that a moratorium be placed on applications for resource consents under the Resource Management Act 1991 (RMA) for the occupation of coastal space for aquaculture. This paper is additional to the five papers seeking Cabinet approval to policy for reforming the management regime governing aquaculture development in New Zealand. The moratorium would avoid the aquaculture reforms being made ineffective by a rush of pre-emptive applications once the new policy is announced.

Key Words: New Zealand • Aquaculture Moratorium • Policy and Regulation • Aquaculture Reform
