Cadastral regulation : as littel as possible, as much as necessary
Grant, Don & Anselm Haanen
Land Information New Zealand is changing the form of cadastral regulation in New Zealand to allow the efficient operation of cadastral survey markets while ensuring that government outcomes from the cadastre are achieved. This is referred to as Optimal Regulationn and is also being applied to other areas of the departmentts business such as land registration, topographic mapping, hydrographic charting, and valuation. The phrase as little as possible, as much as necessaryy encapsulates this philosophy of optimising the level of intervention and enabling the marketplace to develop the best solutions to meet the regulated requirements. Government interventions (the most intense forms of which are legislation and government regulations) are primarily targeted at protecting a public interest or government outcome. Lesser forms of intervention such as guidelines, co-regulation or education are also available. In the past, the government outcomes and objectives to be achieved were often not explicitly stated or, where stated, there were no clear connections between them and the low level regulations and standards in place.
