Resolution number REG/2018/50 MOVED by Chairperson L Cooper, seconded by IMSB Member G Wilcox: That the Regulatory Committee: a) agree that council has completed its statutory review of the Auckland Council Trade Waste Bylaw 2013 in accordance with section 160(1) Local Government Act 2002, and determine that the outcome of the review is that: i) a bylaw is the most appropriate way to minimise the risks to the health and safety of people, the environment, and the wastewater system. ii) the Auckland Council Trade Waste Bylaw 2013 is not the most appropriate form of bylaw because it does not properly regulate certain trade waste discharges. iii) the Auckland Council Trade Waste Bylaw 2013 does not give rise to any implications and is not inconsistent with the New Zealand Bill of Rights Act 1990. b) agree that Option 2: amend current bylaw framework is the preferred option to better manage trade waste issues that responds to the statutory review findings. c) request a statement of proposal that amends the Auckland Council Trade Waste Bylaw 2013 as detailed in Attachment A for Option 2: amend current bylaw framework. |
