  • Arts and Culture Strategy
    WELLINGTON CITY COUNCIL ARTS AND CULTURE STRATEGY December 2011 Te toi whakairo, ka ihiihi, ka wehiwehi, ka aweawe te ao katoa. Artistic excellence makes the world sit up in wonder. 1. Introduction Wellington is a creative city that welcomes and promotes participation, experimentation and collaboration in the arts. It has a tolerant population that is passionate and inquisitive. We acknowledge the unique position of Māori as tāngata whenua and the Council values the relationship it has with its mana whenua partners. Much of what makes New Zealand art unique lies in what makes New Zealand unique – our indigenous culture. As the capital of New Zealand, we are the seat of government and home to an international diplomatic community that connects us to the world. Wellington provides tertiary training opportunities in all art forms; has the highest rate of attendance in cultural activities1. Wellington’s arts and cultural environment is a strongly interconnected weave of: arts organisations (of many sizes); individual arts practitioners; volunteers; audience members; the general public; funders/supporters; and industries such as film and media. Wellington is fortunate to be home to many leading arts organisations and businesses that deliver world class experiences, products and services; attract and retain talented people; and provide essential development and career pathways for arts practitioners in the city. However, the current financial environment and other factors are damaging our arts infrastructure as organisations face reduced income from sponsorship, community trusts, and in some cases, public funding. This is constraining their ability to develop and deliver to their full capability, and some organisations may struggle to survive long term.

  • Global Proxy Voting Guidelines Are Written to Apply Globally, Differences in Local Practice and Law Make Universal Application Impractical
    Wellington Management established these guidelines to document positions generally taken on common proxy issues voted on behalf of clients. Upon a client’s written request, Wellington Management Company LLP (“Wellington Management”) votes securities that are held in the client’s account in response to proxies solicited by the issuers of such securities. These guidelines are based on Wellington Management’s fiduciary obligation to act in the best interest of its clients as shareholders. Hence, Wellington Management examines and votes each proposal so that the long-term effect of the vote will ultimately increase shareholder value for our clients. Because ethical considerations can have an impact on the long- term value of assets, our voting practices are also attentive to these issues, and votes will be cast against unlawful and unethical activity. Further, Wellington Management’s experience in voting proposals has shown that similar proposals often have different consequences for different companies. Moreover, while these Global Proxy Voting Guidelines are written to apply globally, differences in local practice and law make universal application impractical. Therefore, each proposal is evaluated on its merits, considering its effects on the specific company in question and on the company within its industry. It should be noted that the following are guidelines, and not rigid rules, and Wellington Management reserves the right in all cases to vote contrary to guidelines where doing so is judged to represent the best interest of its clients. The goal of our stewardship activities — engaging with companies and voting proxies on our clients’ behalf — is to support decisions that we believe will maximize the long-term value of securities we hold in client portfolios.

  • Case Study: New Zealand
    Case Study: New Zealand Background Because of its geographic location, its dependence on tourism, and the absence of a comprehensive rail network, New Zealand has developed a large international and national airports network over the years. Until 1966, almost all New Zealand important airports were developed by the State and remained under the central Government ownership and management. There are three main international airports. First, Auckland Airport is the busiest and the main international airport. It is the only airport serving the Auckland metropolitan area, which gathers a third of the country’s total population. Second, Wellington International Airport is also a major domestic hub serving mainly business and government. International flights at Wellington Airport are principally from/to Australia. Third, Christchurch International Airport is the major international airport in the South Island, where it acts as the main hub and attracts a significant share of New Zealand’s international tourist traffic. There are other international airports in New Zealand, such as Dunedin, Hamilton, Queenstown, and Palmerston North, which also get flights from other countries (mainly Australia). Other commercial airports serve domestic and regional traffic. Commercialization/privatization: Airports The commercialization of New Zealand’s airports started early. First, the 1961 Joint Airport Scheme established the principles that resulted in both central and local governments jointly owning and operating airport facilities. The objective of this policy was both to benefit from the expertise of local governments on regional economic needs and opportunities, and to make local government directly invest in airport infrastructure. In 1974, 24 airports throughout New Zealand were under a joint venture ownership.

  • A Hamilton Family History John Hamilton's Story
    A HAMILTON FAMILY HISTORY Nelson Provincial Museum: April 1868 4057/2 JOHN HAMILTON’S STORY 1823 - 1911 1. INTRODUCTION John Hamilton was the great grandfather of my wife, Elizabeth Hamilton. This story started in March 2007 when Elizabeth and I went for a holiday to New Zealand. Having already visited the North Island, we planned to visit as much as we could of the South Island in the relatively short time we had available. We planned an itinerary that would give us a feel of the major towns as well as the major southern attractions of the Milford and Doubtful Sounds and the majestic mountains of the West Coast. We visited the towns of Fox Glacier Greymouth, Cobden, Westport and Nelson before getting the ferry across Cook Strait to Wellington. We were aware that John Hamilton had come to New Zealand and settled there and we were also aware that he had a hotel, the Imperial, in Wellington when he died so we decided to allow three days for research. In retrospect this was grossly inadequate and it was only a matter of months before we returned. Before we left home we had a little information. We had details of the hotel and the correspondence that led to the sale of the Imperial in 1966 and the final winding up of John Hamilton’s estate. The hotel had been a source of income to the family for a number of years but Elizabeth’s grandfather, Samuel Hamilton, had died in 1949 as had several of his children and the income was being distributed to a larger number of people that was now including some of Samuel’s grandchildren.

The isthmus not only offered rich volcanic soils, many waterways and inlets, but also a strategic location for trade. Auckland was centered on interconnecting trade routes between the Bay of Plenty, Coromandel, Waikato and Northland.*https://teara.govt.nz/en/tamaki-tribes/page-1 Around 1250 A.D., voyagers on canoes from East Polynesia became the earliest settlers of New Zealand.
