Nelson-Marlborough Regional Council

Last updated August 28, 2025

The Nelson-Marlborough Regional Council was one of 13 regional councils established on 1 November 1989 in nationwide local government reforms. It was disestablished only three years later on 1 July 1992, when its functions went to the unitary authorities ^[1] of Nelson City Council, Tasman District Council, and Marlborough District Council. Kaikoura District had belonged to the Nelson-Marlborough Regional Council, but with the 1992 reform was transferred to the Canterbury Regional Council.^[2]
