Section 200(1) of the Local Government Act 2002 must be construed, in context and purposively, to prevent a territorial authority from imposing both a financial contribution under the RMA and a development contribution under the Act for the same development and for the same purpose; the Council's imposition of a 'top up' development contribution in those circumstances was an error of law and was quashed.
