WHAT HAPPENS AT A HEARING
At the start of the hearing, the Chairperson will introduce the Commissioners sitting on the
hearing panel and council staff and he/she will briefly outline the procedure for the hearing.
The Chairperson may then call upon the parties present to introduce themselves to the panel.
The Chairperson is addressed as Mr Chairman or Madam Chair.
If any party intends to give written or spoken evidence in Maori, the Democracy Advisor Hearings must be informed of this at least five working days prior to the Hearing so that a
qualified interpreter can be provided.
Catering is not provided at the hearing.
Scheduling submitters to be heard
Approximately one week prior to the hearing, a timetable for all submitters who have returned
their hearing attendance form will be prepared. Please note that during the course of the
hearing, changing circumstances may mean that the proposed timetable is delayed or
brought forward. Submitters wishing to be heard are therefore requested to ensure that they
can be available to attend the hearing and present their evidence, as and when they may be
required. The Democracy Advisor - Hearings will advise submitters, at the earliest possible
opportunity, on any changes to the timetable.
The Hearing Procedure
The usual procedure for a Hearing (as specified in the Resource Management Act) is:
•
The applicant will be called upon to present his/her case. The applicant may be
represented by legal counsel or consultants and may call witnesses in support of the
application. After the applicant has presented his/her case, members of the Hearing
Panel may ask questions to clarify the information presented.
•
Submitters (for and against the application) are then called upon to speak. Submitters
may also be represented by legal counsel or consultants and may call witnesses on their
behalf. Each speaker may be questioned in turn by the Hearing Panel. The council
officer’s report will identify any submissions received outside of the submission period. At
the hearing, late submitters may be asked to address the panel on why their late
submission should be accepted. Only if the Hearing Panel accepts the late submission
can the late submitter speak.
•
Should you wish to present written information (evidence) in support of your application or
your submission please ensure you provide the number of copies as indicated on your
notification letter previously sent to you.
•
Only members of the Hearing Panel can ask questions about submissions or evidence.
You may suggest questions for the panel to ask, however the panel does not have to ask
them. No cross-examination - either by the applicant or by those who have lodged
submissions – is permitted at the hearing.
•
After the applicant and submitters have presented their cases, the chairperson may call
upon council officers to comment on any matters of fact or clarification.
•
When all those who lodged submissions and who wish to be heard have completed their
presentations, the applicant or his/her representative has the right to summarise the
application and reply to matters raised by submitters. Members of the Hearing Panel may
ask further questions of the applicant at this stage.
•
The chairperson then generally closes the hearing and the applicant, submitters and their
representatives leave the room. The Hearing Panel will then deliberate “in committee”
and make its decision by way of formal resolution.
•
Decisions are usually available within 15 working days of the hearing.
