Matters of national significance
The RMA enables the Minister for the Environment to intervene in the decision making process for resource consents, private plan changes, requests for the preparation of a regional plan and notices of requirement for designations. Where the matter only affects the coastal marine area the intervention powers are exercised by the Minister of Conservation. Where the matter partly affects the coastal marine area the powers are exercised jointly by the Minister for the Environment and the Minister of Conservation.
