A resource consent is the authorisation given to certain activities or uses of natural and physical resources required under the New Zealand Resource Management Act (the "RMA"). Some activities may either be specifically authorised by the RMA 〔Sections 9 to 15 ''Resource Management Act'' 1991 (New Zealand)〕 or be permitted activities authorised by rules in plans.〔Section 77B(1) ''Resource Management Act'' 1991 (New Zealand)〕 Any activities that are not permitted by the RMA, or by a rule in a plan, require a resource consent before they are carried out. ==Definition and nature== The term "resource consent" is defined as; * a permit to carry out an activity that would otherwise contravene a rule in a city or district plan. * a permission required for an activity that might affect the environment, and that isn't allowed 'as of right' in the district or regional plan.〔(Appendix 4: Glossary of RMA Terms ) Your Guide to the Resource Management Act, updated August 2006, Ref. ME7662, retrieved 2 January 2008.〕 A resource consent, once granted to an applicant, is neither real nor personal property.〔Section 122(1) ''Resource Management Act'' 1991 (New Zealand)〕 Therefore, resource consents cannot be 'owned'; they are 'held' by 'consent holders'.〔The ''Resource Management Act'' 1991 (New Zealand) specifically refers to 'consent holders'. See Sections 120(1)(a), 122, 124, 127, 128, 129, 130, 132, 136, and 138.〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「resource consent」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
