Explanatory Note

This note is not part of the notice but is intended to indicate its general effect.

This notice, which comes into effect on 31 July 2013, requires any person carrying out the activities listed in section 2(2) of this notice (as that activity is defined in the Climate Change (Eligible Industrial Activities) Regulations 2010) to provide the information requested by the Minister in accordance with the data collection rules specified in the notice including only the emissions set out in Schedule 2 of the notice from the sources listed in Emissions Rule 1 of Schedule 1 of the notice, and excluding those emissions set out in Schedule 3 of the notice.

The specified data submission format and declaration must be completed and returned to the Ministry for the Environment within 30 working days of the date of this notice. The Ministry would prefer to receive this information by email to industrialallocation@mfe.govt.nz. If you consider that providing the information by email would cause difficulties, you may return data on CD by mail or in person to the Ministry for the Environment, 23 Kate Sheppard Place, Wellington. Original signed copies of the declaration must also be provided. Please contact the Ministry on 0800 499 700 for any further assistance.

While the notice does not require the source information and records on which the data in the specified data submission format is based, it would be prudent to retain this information for a period of seven years. The Minister is able to request any further information that he considers necessary to enable the verification of the accuracy of the information provided under this notice.

Persons to whom this notice applies should note that, under section 161D(7) of the Act, failure without reasonable excuse to supply the data and information required by this notice will mean that those persons (and associated persons) may not be eligible to be allocated New Zealand units in respect of that activity.

In addition, it is an offence to knowingly provide altered, false, incomplete or misleading information (section 132 of the Act) or, with the intent to deceive and for the purpose of obtaining a material benefit or avoiding a material detriment, to fail to provide information or to provide altered, false, incomplete or misleading information (section 133 of the Act).
