Synopsis

Since this 3rd edition of the Guide was published in 2008 further changes have been made to the RMA. We plan to publish a fully up-to-date fourth edition of the Guide, soon after the Phase 2 RMA reforms have been passed into law, which is expected to be during 2011. The Resource Management Act 1991 affects the lives of most New Zealanders. Yet it is a complex piece of legislation and can be difficult to understand. This Guide provides concise and practical information on how to effectively engage in processes under the Act. It will be of great value to anyone involoved in resource management issues including parties seeking resource consents, affected parties, community groups, businesses and resource management advisors and students.

About this title

Review

Maw's paintings are drenched with a sense of desire, beauty and power. The virile, beautiful people she depicts are stylised, distorted and charged with meaning. Unsettling in their content, these are paintings that exude a potent sexuality. Maw's output has been modest in numbers, if not scale; painstakingly painted over several months, each of her full figure portraits is almost life-size. Her sleek paintwork resembles air brushing in its precision, offering a surrealism somewhere between Salvador Dali and the kind of hot-rod paintings which stretch across panel vans. From Telecom Prospect 2004: New Art New Zealand (Emma Bugden) This remarkable book treats the surface of the page like the surface of a painting. Liz Maw's otherworldly figures hover over the voids within, and reveal her startling attention to surface detail. It's a sumptuous example of her written and visual imagination.
