Where the wild things are: Examining the intersection between the RMA 1991 and the Wildlife Act 1953

Abstract

Recent case law has drawn attention to the impact of the Wildlife Act 1953 (WA) and its intersection with the Resource Management Act 1991 (RMA). Some of the decisions have been summarised in previous RMLA publications and it is the intention of this article to examine more closely aspects of those cases. A particular focus is the use of review conditions related to wildlife in resource consents and the role of an Assessment of Environmental Effects (AEE)
