  • Māori Representation in a Shrunken Parliament
    New Zealand Journal of History, 52, 2 (2018) Māori Representation in a Shrunken Parliament IN A REFERENDUM held in conjunction with New Zealand’s 2011 general election, Māori overwhelmingly supported the retention of the Mixed Member Proportional (MMP) voting system introduced in 1996. Māori support for MMP was significantly less equivocal than that of the general population.1 The extent of support is understandable. MMP brought many benefits for Māori voters, most obviously a large increase in Māori representation in Parliament.2 The bulk of Māori votes were no longer tied up in just four electorates where they could often be safely ignored. With all votes being equal, political parties had a heightened motivation to pay heed to Māori aspirations and to put forward Māori candidates. The benefits of MMP for Māori were increased through the retention of seats reserved for voters of Māori descent, along with the innovation of linking the number of such seats directly with the numbers enrolled to vote in them. In 1996 the number of Māori seats increased to five under the new rules, and further increased to seven in 2002.3 Previously the number of reserved Māori seats was fixed at four, and had been since 1867.4 New Zealand adopted MMP following a binding referendum held in 1993. In 1990 Ranginui Walker summarized some of the faults with the electoral system then in place, pointing to both historical and ongoing discrimination. Whereas the secret ballot applied in European electorates from 1870, it did not apply in Māori electorates until 1937.5 There were no Māori electoral rolls until 1949 and compulsory voter registration was not introduced for Māori until 1956.

  • Parliamentarians and Their (Often Missing) Papers Rags and Riches Would Be a Fair Description of the Hocken Library’S Holdings of New Zealand Parliamentarians’ Papers
    W E L C O M E T O T H E H O C K E N FRIENDS OF THE HOCKEN COLLECTIONS : BULLETIN NUMBER 6 : SEPTEMBER 1993 Parliamentarians and their (often missing) papers Rags and riches would be a fair description of the Hocken Library’s holdings of New Zealand parliamentarians’ papers. Far too many rags — yet a few surprisingly good holdings for the use of present and future researchers. The real tragedy is the number of old-time southern New Zealand political heavyweights of whom not a scrap is held. Dunedin’s Vogel and Bracken, Central Otago’s Pyke, Southland’s Joseph Ward, and many others are not there at all. Even Stout is represented only by virtue of his widow’s papers. Many of the existing scraps are not much better. Imagine Robert Campbell, noted run- holder and politician, represented by only a few cheque butts; Hyde Harris by a mere handful of letters; Sir John McKenzie by two notes to his storekeeper; Sir Thomas McKenzie by a single reply to a wellwisher. Nor does parliamentary material figure much in the papers of such former MPs as W.Cargill (mainly N.Z.Company correspondence), G.M.Thomson (natural history papers), or Sir James Mills (shipping interests). There are some notable compensations, though. The two biggest local collections to come into the Hocken before 1970 were those of The Hocken Library has several original Murray J.T.Paul and W.Downie Stewart. Paul — unionist, Webb cartoons of parliamentarians, including Labour member, wartime censor and one-time this ‘interpretation’ of Stan Rodger, donor of an important set of parliamentary papers and editor of the Otago Witness — left a valuable Vice-chairman of the Friends.

The Introduction within the Aon report described. “The Marsh report generically addresses the insurance market perception of Transmission and Distribution (T&D) risks and the general unwillingness of underwriters to provide cost-effective coverage for these assets. The report does not specifically address Orion’s assets, strong risk management processes, loss history or the potential for further catastrophic losses from a range of events”. The introduction of our report also noted: “We note that additional information on Orion’s insurance programme and the earthquake losses sustained by Orion to its network and any loss estimates available of potential damage to the major network components (overhead lines, underground cables, switchgear/transformers) is required for a more detailed response to be provided”. Without this detail, our response was necessarily generic in terms of the insurance market conditions for Material Damage/Business Interruption risks for all NZ insurance buyers – namely, sharp increases immediately post the Canterbury earthquakes but now levelling and in many instances reducing – and specifically (in respect of T&D coverage) that subject to detailed analysis, insurance is available. We remain confident in the findings in our May 2013 report.
