Land Act 1994

The trustee of a reserve may apply to the Minister—

to change the boundaries of the reserve; or

to change the purpose for which the reserve is dedicated.

However, an application to change the purpose for which the reserve is dedicated to another purpose or to add a purpose may be made only if the new purpose is a purpose mentioned in section 31(1)(a), (b) or (c).

Before applying under subsection (1), the trustee must give notice of the trustee’s intention to make the application to each person with a registered interest in the reserve.

The trustee may also give notice to any other person the trustee considers—

has an interest in the reserve; or

would have an interest in the reserve if the boundaries of the reserve or the purpose for which the reserve is dedicated were changed.
