The new sections provide for arbitrated compensation to be provided to affected quota owners if the chief executive under the Fisheries Act 1996 (the <def-term id="DLM3931757">chief executive</def-term>) has made a reservation, in relation to a coastal permit for aquaculture activities, in respect of commercial fishing of quota stock, and the holder of the coastal permit has not registered an aquaculture agreement in respect of the stock.</text></para><para><text>The holder of the coastal permit may submit a request to an arbitrator to determine the compensation to be provided to quota owners. The person who is to be the arbitrator is to be agreed by the holder of the coastal permit and all quota owners or, failing agreement, by the President of the Arbitrators and Mediators Institute of New Zealand Incorporated.</text></para><para><text>Before proceeding to determine the compensation to be provided to quota owners, the arbitrator must determine a preliminary question. The question is which is of greater economic value to New Zealand: the proposed aquaculture activities or the fishing in relation to which the chief executive has made a reservation. If the arbitrator decides in favour of the fishing or cannot decide one way or the other, the process of arbitrated compensation comes to an end. If the arbitrator decides in favour of the aquaculture activities, the arbitrator must then proceed to determine the compensation to be provided to quota owners. The arbitrator must, in making the determination, follow the methodology specified in any regulations made under <emphasis style="italic">new section 186ZR</emphasis>.</text></para><para><text>After the arbitrator has determined the compensation and the holder of the coastal permit has provided the compensation to the quota owners, the holder of the coastal permit can register a statutory declaration (<emphasis style="bold">compensation declaration</emphasis>) with the chief executive to that effect. On completion of that, the coastal permit commences in relation to the area affected by the reservation.</text></para><para><text>The other amendments in this Supplementary Order Paper are directly related to this process of arbitrated compensation.
