Land Transport New Zealand

Land Transport Act 1998

Land Transport Rules

In accordance with section 161(2) of the Land Transport Act
1998, Land Transport New Zealand, on behalf of the Minister
of Transport, gives notice of the Minister’s intention to
make two Land Transport Rules and advises that draft Land
Transport Rule: Traction Engines [2008] and Land Transport
Rule: Vehicle Equipment (Immobilisers) Amendment [2008],
are available for public comment.

Land Transport Rule: Traction Engines [2008]
(Rule 63001)

This proposed Rule is intended to ensure the safe operation
of traction engines in public places by specifying
the qualifications for users of traction engines and the
requirements for vehicle certification.

Land Transport Rule: Vehicle Equipment (Immobilisers)
Amendment [2008] (Rule 32017/3)

This proposed Rule will amend Land Transport Rule:
Vehicle Equipment 2004.

It would require that a new or used light passenger vehicle
that is less than eight years old, and that enters New Zealand
from the date the Rule comes into force, be fitted with an
immobiliser in order to be certified for use on road.

This proposal is aimed at reducing opportunistic vehicle
theft.

A copy of these draft Rules, with information about the
proposed changes, can be obtained by calling the Land
Transport New Zealand Contact Centre on freephone
0800 699 000 or by visiting the Land Transport New Zealand
website at
www.landtransport.govt.nz/consultation

The consultation material is also available for viewing at
Land Transport New Zealand’s regional offices.

Groups and individuals who have registered their interest
have been advised of the availability of the draft Rules.

Submissions on draft Land Transport Rule: Traction Engines
[2008] and draft Land Transport Rule: Vehicle Equipment
(Immobilisers) Amendment [2008] close on 23 May 2008.

For further information about the Rules process, contact the
Rules Team, Land Transport New Zealand, PO Box 2840,
Wellington, or email info@landtransport.govt.nz
