Guidance for pastoral leaseholders and applicants

We have created a series of guides and factsheets to help pastoral leaseholders and those applying for consent to navigate Crown Pastoral Land Act 1998 requirements and the reforms introduced in 2022.

We hope the following information is helpful. If you have any questions or feedback on the guidance please contact your Pastoral Specialist or email pastoral@linz.govt.nz.
