Natural and Built Environment Bill

Government Bill
Published date: 05 Jul 2024

Bills are proposals to make a new law or to change an existing one. Only Parliament can pass a bill. Each bill goes through several stages, giving MPs and the public the chance to have their say.

This bill repeals and replaces the Resource Management Act 1991, working in tandem with the Spatial Planning Bill.
