Sources of RMA law on the internet
http://www.rmaguide.org.nz/ – this RMA guide is very good for finding your way around
http://www.qualityplanning.org.nz/ - Quality Planning website – this is the level of understanding I expect you to have at the end of the course
Mfe.govt.nz
Brookers database on VUW library website – use both annotations to the RMA and also searches of relevant case law – you will need the latter for your research essay.
Went through the outline of the Act looking briefly at all key parts we will be covering. Discussed provisions such as s15 and how you need to read the detail carefully.
Looked at lgnz.govt.nz website:
- noted the difference between territorial authorities (district and city councils) and regional councils
- examined a couple of examples of plans. Looked at planning map from the Wellington plan. Note how different councils take different approaches. Looked at Wgtn regional coastal plan by contrast with land use plans by district and city councils.
