(1) It is a guiding principle for the management of the marine and coastal environment that planning and management should be co-ordinated and integrated, as appropriate, across—
(a) the marine and coastal environment and associated catchments; and
(b) the water cycle, including as it relates to estuaries, oceans, bays and coastal waters, groundwater and waterways, where this affects the marine and coastal environment and water quality; and
(c) industry sectors and users of the marine and coastal environment; and
(d) land tenure where this affects the marine and coastal environment.
(2) Planning and management should also take into account long-term and short-term environmental, social and economic considerations.
