Ngā tūtohunga paewhiri kua tautuhia, ‘Kei waho o te korahi’ Panel recommendations identified as 'Out of scope'

When the council made its decisions, it accepted some recommendations identified by the Independent Hearings Panel as being beyond the scope of submissions (‘out of scope’). These included recommendations on the zoning of certain land.

An explanation of how to identify the panel's out of scope recommendations that have been accepted by the council can be found in the decision document.

Anyone unduly prejudiced by the council's acceptance of these out of scope recommendations has a right of appeal to the Environment Court under section 156(3) of the Local Government (Auckland Transitional Provisions) Act 2010.
