Secondary Legislation

A change in the Legislation Act means notices previously categorised as Delegated Legislation (DL) are now Secondary Legislation (SL). The Secondary Legislation category also includes tertiary legislation, legislative instruments and disallowable instruments. For more information please see http://www.pco.govt.nz/sl/.(external link)

You can still find published notices categorised as Delegated Legislation before 28 October 2021 in the Advanced Search.
