There has been substantial legal reform in natural resource management over the last 15 or more years. This research was concerned with examining the new legal arrangements for catchment and water planning. Legislation was analysed to assess the extent to which the principles of ecologically sustainable development had been incorporated into planning processes. Land use, water and catchment plans were then examined to assess the extent to which reform had flowed into practice.
