APRA must balance the requirements of subsection (1) with the requirements specified in section 8 .
8A(3)
If:
(a) APRA proposes to take an action; and
(b) APRA has reasonable cause to believe that action is likely to have a detrimental effect on financial system stability in New Zealand;
APRA must, to the extent that APRA considers reasonably practicable in the circumstances, having regard to urgency or other similar constraint, consult with and consider the advice of each prescribed New Zealand authority APRA considers to be relevant in the circumstances before taking the action.
8A(4)
The performance of a function or the exercise of a power by APRA is not invalid merely because of a failure by APRA to comply with this section.
