Submission Summary:
A Summary of Decisions Requested
Under Schedule 1 (Part 1, Clause 8) of the Resource Management Act 1991 (RMA), we are required to provide a summary document of submissions received on a proposed plan. This summary is referred to as the ‘Summary of Decisions Requested’ document. This summary document collates all our submitters’ submission points into one uniform table. Each submitter and subsequent submission points are allocated a unique reference number. Shown in the first column of our summary tables, these reference numbers assist when making further submissions, and also help our hearing panels when they read your submission.
There are two versions of the ‘Summary of Decisions Requested’ document. Both contain the same data in different formats:
- NRP PC 1 - Summary of Decisions Requested – By Submitter (PDF 16 MB)
- NRP PC 1 - Summary of Decisions Requested – By Provision (PDF 14 MB)
Hard copies are also available to view at the reception of our Cuba St and Masterton offices.
If you provided a submission on the Proposed Change 1:
Please review the above Summary of Decisions Requested document(s). We want to be sure we have accurately summarised your intent in the submission points provided. Please note: These are summary documents, they are created to assist the Proposed Change process. The ‘Reasons’ have been summarised to main intents only, and the focus remains on the ‘Decisions sought’.
If you feel that we have incorrectly summarised your submission point(s), please email regionalplan@gw.govt.nz identifying these, and illustrate how they should be corrected.
