Courting the environment

Richard Hawke

No 374604, Competition & Regulation Times from New Zealand Institute for the Study of Competition and Regulation

Abstract: The Resource Management Act of 1991 dramatically altered environmental management in New Zealand. For the first time, legislation provided a framework for decentralized decisionmaking about the environment and resource use, with the Environment Court being an integral part of this framework. Richard Hawke from Victoria University's Earth Sciences is examining the use of the Environment Court proceedings as an instrument of competition. In this, the first of two articles, he outlines the importance of the framework.
