Abstract

This review examines concession management systems within and outside New Zealand, including discussion of examples in parks with high visitor use. Information on concession and recreation planning was collected from DOC literature and staff, key international contacts, and a search of internet and library resources. Results show that other countries are having similar problems in allocating concessions and in setting limits to environmental and social impacts. No established method or process was identified that DOC could adopt, but actions could be implemented which would aid development of an improved DOC concession system.
