State Lands (Amendment) Decree 2013 (No. 7 of 2013).

This Decree amends the State Lands Act, originally titled “Crown Lands Act”, in section 6 by adding a subsection (6), which provides that any i Taukei land which is exchanged for portions of State land under subsection (3) must not be exchanged for portions of private freehold land under subsection. It also adds a new section (28a), which allows a person who is not a registered surveyor to be appointed as the Director of Lands. In such a case, the functions and duties of the Surveyor-General may be performed by another person under the direction and control of the person appointed as Director of Lands.”
