This section does not confer on the Authority a power to take land compulsorily.

Land acquired for the purposes of this Act by the contributory local bodies is not a reserve for the purposes of the Reserves Act 1977.
(6) (5) 20 (1) Disposal of land If any land or interest in land held by a contributory local body for the purposes of this Act is no longer required for the pur- poses of this Act, the contributory local body may, subject to the provisions of any other enactment affecting the disposal of the land or interest, sell or otherwise dispose of the land or interest.

In determining any claim for compensation under this section, the Authority or, on application under section 79 of the Public Works Act 1981, the Land Valuation Tribunal must have re- gard to— (a) section 3; and 17 s 22 (4) (5) Summit Road (Canterbury) Protection Act 2001 Reprinted as at 1 July 2013 (b) whether or not, and the extent to which, any decision by the Authority renders any land incapable of reasonable use, and places an unfair and unreasonable burden on any person having an interest in the land.
In subsection (3), reasonable use, in relation to any land, in- cludes the use or potential use of the land for any activity if the actual or potential effects of that activity in terms of section 3 would not be significant.
If a person is entitled to claim compensation in respect of any matter or thing under this Act and also under any other enact- ment, that person is not entitled to receive— (a) compensation under this Act if compensation has been awarded under that other enactment; or greater compensation under this Act than that person would be entitled to under that other enactment.
(b) 22 Withdrawal of restrictions (1) The Authority may, at any time within 1 month after the date of an award of compensation under this Act, give notice to the claimant of its intention to withdraw or modify all or any of the provisions of the decision or conditions that gave rise to the claim for compensation.
If notice is given under subsection (1), the Authority must, within 3 months from the date of the notice, withdraw or mod- ify the decision or conditions and, on payment by the Author- ity of the claimant’s costs awarded by the Land Valuation Tri- bunal, the award is discharged.

(2) (3) A discharge under subsection (2) does not preclude the claimant from making a further claim for compensation under this Act in respect of the decision or conditions as modified.
If notice has been given under subsection (1), no award of compensation under this Act is enforceable until after— (a) (4) the expiration of 3 months from the giving of the notice; or the time for objection or appeal has expired and all ob- jections and appeals have been determined (in any case where the Authority has publicly notified a proposal to make a declaration excluding from protected land any (b) 18 Reprinted as at 1 July 2013 Summit Road (Canterbury) Protection Act 2001 s 24 part of the land in respect of which compensation has been awarded).
23 (1) (2) Registration of compensation certificate If, under this Act or any other enactment, the Authority has en- tered into an agreement for the payment of compensation for damaging or detrimentally affecting any interest in land, or for the temporary occupation of any land, or for any condition or restriction to be applied in respect of the land, the Authority may lodge with the Registrar-General a certificate to that ef- fect.
The Registrar-General must, without fee, deposit a certificate under subsection (1) in his or her office and must register against the title to the land affected a memorial referring to the certificate.

Rights of appeal 24 (1) Any person who is directly affected by any decision, condi- tion, or review of any decision made or imposed by the Au- thority under any of sections 10, 12, 13, 14, and 22 may appeal against that decision, condition, or review to the Environment Court.
(2) A notice of appeal must— (a) (b) (c) state the reasons for the appeal and the relief sought; and state any matters that regulations made under the Resource Management Act 1991 require to be stated in the case of an appeal under section 120 of that Act; and be lodged with the Environment Court within 15 work- ing days of notification of any decision of the Author- ity (including any condition or review of any decision made or imposed by the Authority) to which subsection (1) relates.
(3) (4) For the purposes of subsection (2)(c), a decision is notified on the date on which written notification would have been deliv- ered in the ordinary course of post.

The appellant must ensure that a copy of the notice of appeal is served on the applicant or owner concerned (if that person 19 s 25 Summit Road (Canterbury) Protection Act 2001 Reprinted as at 1 July 2013 is not the appellant) within 5 working days after the notice has been lodged with the Environment Court.
(5) Without limiting the powers of the Environment Court under the Resource Management Act 1991, in considering an appeal under this section, the Environment Court may confirm or re- verse a decision appealed against or modify a decision in such manner as the court thinks fit.

Subject to subsections (2) to (4), every appeal must be made, heard, and determined by the Environment Court in the man- ner prescribed by the Resource Management Act 1991 and regulations made under that Act.
(6) (2) Expenses and funding of Authority 25 (1) All expenses and liabilities, including compensation awards incurred by the Authority under this Act but excluding pay- ments received by the Authority under section 14(3), must be apportioned between the contributory local bodies.
The apportionment required by subsection (1) must be under- taken in accordance with the adjusted rateable capital values, as ascertained under the provisions of the Rating Powers Act 1988, of so much of the district of each contributory local body as is specified in Schedule 4.

The amount to be paid at any time by a contributory local body in accordance with the apportionment is recoverable as a debt due to the Authority.
(3) (4) A contributory local body is not required, in any one year, to contribute to the expenditure of the Authority relating to the operation of this Act, a sum exceeding the amount of 1/4000 of a cent for every dollar of capital value of all rateable property within that part of its district specified in Schedule 4.
(5) Despite subsection (4), a contributory local body may be re- quired to contribute to the expenditure of the Authority a sum exceeding the maximum amount due under subsection (4), if the contributory local body gives prior consent to the Author- ity in that year to the provision of a greater contribution.
20 Reprinted as at 1 July 2013 Summit Road (Canterbury) Protection Act 2001 s 28 26 27 28 (1) (2) Estimates and reports As soon as practicable after this Act comes into force and not later than 31 March in each subsequent year, the Authority must, in respect of the administration of the provisions of this Act,— (a) prepare and send to each of the contributory local bodies estimates of expenditure for the period of 12 months from 1 July in each year to 30 June in each succeeding year; and prepare a report on the Authority’s activities for the pre- ceding year and send that report to the contributory local bodies.
(b) Service of notices A notice must be served in accordance with sections 352 and 353 of the Resource Management Act 1991 as if it were a notice under that Act.
Restoration of land or structure The Authority may serve on any person who has carried out, or is carrying out, any action contrary to section 12, or on the owner or occupier of the land, a notice requiring the person served, within such reasonable time as is specified in the no- tice, to restore the land or the structure affected by the action as nearly as may be to its previous condition.
Every notice served under subsection (1) must state— (a) (b) (c) the name of the person to whom it is addressed; and the reasons for the notice; and the action required to be taken, ceased, or not under- taken; and the period within which the action must be taken or ceased, which must not be less than 7 days from the day on which the notice is served; and the consequences of not complying with the notice or lodging a notice of appeal; and the rights of appeal under section 24 and the last day on which a notice of appeal can be lodged; and (d) (e) (f) 21 s 29 Summit Road (Canterbury) Protection Act 2001 Reprinted as at 1 July 2013 (3) 29 (1) (2) (3) (g) the rights of the Authority on failure of the recipient to comply with the notice within the time specified in the notice; and the name and address of the Authority.
(h) Subject to the rights of appeal in section 24, a person on whom a notice has been served must— (a) comply with the notice within the period specified in the notice; and unless the notice directs otherwise, pay all the costs and expenses of complying with the notice.
(b) Enforcement orders If the person served with a notice under section 28(1) fails to comply with the notice within the time specified, then the Authority, in addition to any other action taken, may at any time after the expiry of the time specified in the notice— (a) apply to the Environment Court for an enforcement order under section 314 of the Resource Management Act 1991, as if the notice under subsection (1) were an abatement notice within the meaning of section 322 of the Resource Management Act 1991; and (b) take action as it sees fit to restore the land or structure.
The provisions of section 315 of the Resource Management Act 1991 apply in respect of any enforcement order made on an application under subsection (1).
If a person continues to act in breach of section 12 or commits a continuing offence against this Act, then, despite any other enactment, the Environment Court may, on application by the Authority, grant an enforcement order under section 314 of the Resource Management Act 1991, as if that continuing breach or continuing offence contravenes, or is likely to contravene, the Resource Management Act 1991.
(4) An enforcement order may be granted under subsection (2) or subsection (3) whether or not the person against whom the en- forcement order is sought has been charged with or convicted of an offence against this Act.

22 Reprinted as at 1 July 2013 Summit Road (Canterbury) Protection Act 2001 s 31 30 (1) (2) (3) 31 (1) (2) Offences Every person commits an offence against this Act who fails to comply with a notice served under section 28(1) within the time specified in the notice.
Every person who fails to restore the land or structure as re- quired after expiry of the time specified in a notice served under section 28(1) commits a continuing offence against this Act.

The continued existence of any work or thing in a state, or the intermittent repetition of any action, contrary to any provision of this Act, is a continuing offence for the purposes of this section.
Proof of intention and defences In any prosecution for an offence against this Act it is not ne- cessary to prove that the defendant intended to commit the of- fence.
It is a defence to a prosecution under this Act if the defendant proves— (a) that— (i) (ii) (iii) the action or event to which the prosecution re- lates was necessary for the purposes of saving or protecting life or health, or preventing ser- ious damage to property, or avoiding an actual or likely adverse effect on the environment; and the conduct of the defendant was reasonable in the circumstances; and the effects of the action or event were adequately mitigated or remedied by the defendant after it occurred; or (b) that the action or event to which the prosecution relates was due to an event beyond the control of the defendant, including natural disaster, mechanical failure, or sabo- tage, and in each case— (i) the action or event could not reasonably have been foreseen or prevented by the defendant; and the effects of the action or event were adequately mitigated or remedied by the defendant after it occurred.
(ii) 23 s 32 (3) 32 33 Summit Road (Canterbury) Protection Act 2001 Reprinted as at 1 July 2013 Except with the leave of the court, subsection (2) does not apply unless, within 14 days of the date on which the hearing of the proceedings commences, or within any further time that the court may allow, the defendant delivers to the Authority a written notice— (a) stating that he or she intends to rely on subsection (2); and specifying the facts that support his or her reliance on subsection (2).
(b) Time for filing charging document Despite anything to the contrary in section 25 of the Criminal Procedure Act 2011, the limitation period in respect of an of- fence against this Act ends on the date that is 6 months after the date on which the offence first came to the notice of the Authority.

Section 32: replaced, on 1 July 2013, by section 413 of the Criminal Procedure Act 2011 (2011 No 81).
Penalty for offences Every person who commits an offence under this Act is liable to a fine not exceeding $20,000 and, if the offence is a con- tinuing one, to a further fine not exceeding $1,000 for every day or part of a day during which the offence continues.

Proceedings in respect of offences 34 (1) A charging document for an offence against this Act may be filed in the name of— (a) (b) the principal administrative officer of the Authority; or a person appointed in writing by the Authority.
(2) An appointment under subsection (1) may be for the purpose of filing a charging document in respect of a particular offence or may be a general appointment authorising the person to file charging documents in respect of all offences against this Act.

(3) An officer or servant of the Authority may appear and conduct the prosecution in all proceedings for offences against this Act.

the editorial conventions, Changes made under section 17C of the Acts and Regulations Publication Act 1989 Section 17C of the Acts and Regulations Publication Act 1989 authorises the making of editorial changes in a reprint as set out in sections 17D and 17E of that Act so that, to the extent permitted, the format and style of the reprinted enactment is consistent with current legislative drafting practice.

Changes that would alter the effect of the legislation are not permitted.
