Electronic reprints/eprints

The New Zealand Legislation website provides access to legislation with all amendments incorporated. These documents can be described as reprints or eprints. Acts and regulations that have been amended show the date of the latest amendment to have been incorporated at the top of the contents page ("Reprint as at ..."). At the bottom of the contents page is a link to the reprint notes.

Reprints on the New Zealand Legislation website

If the legislation has semi-official status (see Making online legislation official) the reprint will have been prepared following the same editorial conventions as a traditional printed reprint—see Reprinting conventions.

eprints on the New Zealand Legislation website

If the legislation has not yet been officialised it will refer to itself as an eprint. All in-force amendments since the legislation was passed or made will have been incorporated, but only the amendments incorporated since September 2007 will be listed in the reprint notes.
