Christchurch city councillors voted to make permanent a temporary ban on freedom campers without toilets on board. The temporary ban was introduced after a 2015 bylaw failed to control an influx of visitors, leading to overcrowding and conflict with residents. The permanent ban applies to five previously allowed locations, regardless of whether the vehicle has a toilet. Those with toilets can still camp elsewhere, while those without are completely banned in Christchurch and Banks Peninsula.
