The Marine and Coastal Area (Takutai Moana) Act 2011 is an Act of the New Zealand Parliament created to replace the Foreshore and Seabed Act 2004. It was brought in by the fifth National government and creates a sui generis property class for the marine and coastal area, in which it is vested in no one.^[1][2] This is in contrast to the Foreshore and Seabed Act 2004 in which the foreshore and seabed were vested in the Crown.^[3]
