### sec.164 Publication of outcome of application
After the Minister decides whether or not to grant the geothermal lease, the chief executive must publish a notice about the outcome of the geothermal lease application in or on at least 1 of the following—
the gazette;
the department’s website;
another publication the chief executive considers appropriate.
The notice must state—
the decision; and
if the decision was to grant the geothermal lease—all of the geothermal lease’s conditions other than the mandatory conditions; and
if, under division 4 , a resource management decision was required and the decision is to give overlapping authority priority for all or part of the land—the decision and the reasons for it.
However, if the chief executive considers information in a condition is commercial-in-confidence, the chief executive may, instead of publishing the condition, publish a statement about its intent.
