INDEPENDENT FISHERIES LTD AND CLEARWATER LAND HOLDINGS LTD v MINISTER FOR CANTERBURY EARTHQUAKE RECOVERY SC 15/2013
- Citation
- SC 15/2013
- Court
- Supreme Court
The application for leave to appeal is dismissed because the Supreme Court lacks jurisdiction to entertain an appeal directed to the reasons of the Court of Appeal rather than to its decision, the applicants effectively seek an advisory opinion on the Minister's statutory powers, and any relevant future decisions by the Minister can be challenged in the usual way.
