   ...[12] Paragraph [146] and following in my principal decision read as follows: 3 [146] Section 227 of the Act enables trustees to make decisions and execute documents by majority. 4 Mrs Fenwick and Mr Eru could have availed themselves of that protection and declined to sign the TPA and related agreements and absented themselves from the trustees’ and owners’ meetings when this issue was discussed.

   ...industry into disrepute and which, for that reason, agents of good standing or reasonable members of the public would consider to be disgraceful. It is noted that both the former REINZ Rules (rule 13.1) and the current Professional Conduct and Client Care Rules 2009 (rule 6.3) contain provision for proper conduct so as not to bring the industry into disrepute. [17] We have recognised that s.73(a) may apply to conduct by a real estate agent outside of real estate agency work. In CA...

   ...Court. It may be sensible, for example, to include in any revised terms of trust, a provision requiring any application to come before the Court to have the support of at least two or more peka to be valid. This is comparable to the standard protection of minorities clause in most ahu whenua trust orders when a minimum number of beneficial owners must sign any requisition for a meeting before it will be valid. In addition, there is always the possibility of an application for secur...

Overhead sprinklers are a proven method of protecting new buds and maturing fruit but are dependent on adequate water supply, storage and distribution. 39. The elevated Springvale/McArthur Road area is not suitable for wind machine or helicopter frost fighting because of the lack...

   ...whether and (if so) on what conditions the proceedings shall be reheard. (3) The decision of the court on any such proceedings shall have the same effect as a decision of the court on the original proceedings. [21] Even where s294 is applicable, careful consideration is required as to whether, and on what basis, any revisiting of a decision would be fair and appropriate. In particular, there should be finality to litigation and the court should not order a re-hearing unless there...
