    DOC need our age

    Why do we need to give our D.O.B. when applying for a hunting permit on line? Is this new? Didn't need this info when got permits for West Coast last year.

    Calm your tits.
    Seems like the person is just asking why and if it changed.


    It's most likely just for analytics and working out trends of who's using what.
    Would be quite interesting to see if the average age of back country hut users and hunters has changed much

    I'd never get a permit if that was the case.

    I guess DOB is just to verify your age be it 5 or 555

    They require your firearm license number which should be sufficient verification, after all this has been verified by the NZ Police.

    Im going with the STATS side of it, however when renewing your permit they ask for permit number and DOB so they bring your details up. Just because you give a firearms number does'nt mean their system is linked to know all the details of that number??

    Just as an off side........dont we have to put DOB in to sign up here??

    Pretty sure it's just to identify which Joe Smith you are... The 57 year old one as opposed to the 19 year old one who lives down the road... Nothing to get paranoid about.. They aren't about to hack your fb and bank acc details...

    Really? Never knew that
    The range of what we think and do is limited by what we fail to notice. And because we fail to notice that we fail to notice, there is little we can do to change; until we notice how failing to notice shapes our thoughts and deeds

    Permission for Hunting : Tuhoe

    Some people hunt with a bow. Or a knife. Or with their minds.
