He's asking why the term 'noPT' is not displayed in on the legs between the initial and intermediate fixes.

Firstly, CAA don't publish the NZAIP, but that's semantics.

The reason you don't see 'noPT' - you won't find 'noPT' on any New Zealand chart - I don't think it's actually a PANS OPS term. It shouldn't matter anyway, because from a practical standpoint, you couldn't make a procedure turn even if you wanted to - they are used for reversing direction (when you're talking straight-in approaches like this), and there is no way you can fly this approach that would require a reversal.
