Task 1: Resource Management Act 1991 You have a customer, Cindy, who has recently emigrated to New Zealand and is hoping to buy a home in Matai Valley. She explains to you that one of the main reasons she chose to move her family to New Zealand was because of the 'clean and green' image of this country. "It's very different from where I've come from. There everything is crowded and there's hardly any sign of the natural world left, because it's all concrete and steel! What's the secret of this country?' Cindy asks. Using your own words, explain to Cindy the main principles and objectives of the Resource Management Act 1991.
