Courting the environment

No 374803, Competition & Regulation Times from New Zealand Institute for the Study of Competition and Regulation

Abstract: The Environment Court is a critical component of New Zealand's Institutional structure for allocating resources and managing conflicting demands. It plays a pivotal role in the framework for establishing property rights (such as consents and appeals relating to plans) and impingements on those rights (such as appeals relating to individual resource consents). Over time, Environment Court decisions provide both incentives and information to those who manage resources. Richard Hawke from Victoria University's Earth Sciences here follows on from his earlier article (in Competition & Regulation Times April 2003) and describes outcomes and processes of Environment Court decisions.
