The select committee recommended two main amendments. The first was to clarify the geographical description of the land in the Ōtākaro Avon River Corridor. This land includes sites that the Crown has held under previous legislation, but also adjacent land owned by the city council. This new description doesn't change the amount or the type of land included; it merely changes the way that it is described. Also, an indicative map and further detail will be attached to the Act to assist in interpretation.
