The housing bottom lines have been directly inserted into Schedule 6 of the RPS 2019 under sections 55(2)(b) and 55(2A) of the Resource Management Act 1991 (RMA).

Clause 3.6(4) of the National Policy Statement on Urban Development 2020 (NPS-UD) requires that housing bottom lines be inserted into the RPS without using a process in Schedule 1 of the RMA (this means that submissions cannot be made on the insertions).

The housing bottom lines have been calculated as part of the Housing Capacity Assessment for Dunedin City 2023 and the Queenstown Lakes District Housing Development Capacity Assessment 2021.

These insertions are effective from 21 February 2024.
