The Legal Bits
The Motuora Restoration Society is an incorporated society and a registered charity. We are obliged to have a constitution which sets out how we manage the Society on behalf of our members.
As the Island is Crown Land and is administered by the Department of Conservation, we have a Community Agreement and an MOU with the Department which sets out our relationship and the requirements placed upon us by them. We also have a lease for the nursery area.
One of the requirements is that we will have a Department-approved Health and Safety Plan.
Our Constitution (note: due to be replaced in 2024/25 to meet the requirements of new legislation for incorporated societies)
