Overview

The Exclusive Economic Zone and Continental Shelf (Fees and Charges) Regulations 2013 set hourly charge-out rates for certain functions and services. The current charge-out rates have not been revised since 2013 and are not recovering costs. 

We are proposing increases to those charge-out rates. 

The main parties affected are people and companies who:  

  • intend to apply for, or already have, marine consents under the EEZ Act
  • undertake or intend to undertake permitted activities under the EEZ Act.

There are no current plans to review or amend the EEZ Act.
