Legal information is right at your fingertips through the following databases: New Zealand Legislation
This website provides free public access to New Zealand statutes (Public, Local, and Private Acts) and Statutory Regulations. Legislation on the website has amendments incorporated to provide a snapshot of the law as it currently stands. Amendments are added as soon as possible. Superceded legislation is also available on the site, by clicking on 'see other versions' when browsing a particular Act or Regulation. Legislation can be either browsed or searched. Legislation NZ / Hansard
This site from The Knowledge Basket provides the unconsolidated Acts and Regulations of New Zealand. You are able to browse Acts and Regulations, and download Bills, Supplementary Order Papers and Hansard Advances. Please note: the ACTS collections are not consolidated. This means that information is not incorporated into a section of an Act when it is amended, or repealed. So, if you happen to be reviewing an Act, there is no way of telling that the section you are reading has been amended by another Act or indeed, repealed. Please check the Help text within the database for more details. New Zealand GovernmentThis site is a portal to all central and local government bodies and the services they provide. Provides background information on New Zealand's history, constitution and government, as well as links to Ministries and Departments.
Search here for information on taxation, dog, firearm or drivers licences, building or travel permits, dealing with tenancy or other neighbourhood issues, starting a family or starting a business, and a lot more.
