NZ HUNTING PERMITS NOW ONLINE
Hunters can now go online at any time from any computer and apply for a hunting permit on conservation land anywhere in the country, says Minister of Conservation Kate Wilkinson.
The Department of Conservation’s (DOC) National (online) Hunting Permit System is now up and running, simplifying the application process and ensuring hunters have access to all the relevant information they need.
All permits will be valid for four months. A current firearms licence is required to validate a permit to hunt on public conservation lands.

WALKING ACCESS MAPPING BETA UP AND RUNNING
The Walking Access Mapping System (WAMS) is an online system using geo graphic information system (GIS) technology to provide a view of the legal boundaries of public land. This boundary information (known as the cadastre) can be viewed against topographical maps or aerial photographs. WAMS has been designed to assist the public to identify land in New Zealand open to recreational access on foot.
