Election Will Be Crush Vs Smile It Was Fashionable at One Point in the Last Generation and a Half for Some Men to Refer to Their Inner Feminism
JT col for July 18 2020 - Crush v smile Election will be crush vs smile It was fashionable at one point in the last generation and a half for some men to refer to their inner feminism. I was one. But past performance not withstanding, I must still be viewed as a male chauv…or worse, an old male chauv. There, I’ve said it. The risk in what follows seems less: I’m delighted the leadership of the country will be contested by two women, Jacinda Ardern versus Judith Collins. How appropriate, given we were the first to “allow” women to vote. Not- withstanding further accidents, we’re headed into an election in which a woman is guaranteed to be Prime Minister. I must have had an inkling about this, because last week I went along to see Collins for myself. A self-declared good mate of Johnathan Young’s, she turned up in Taranaki to speak at his election launch, visit around, promote her recently published memoirs, et cetera. I was one of 110 people keen enough to brave a freezing night to observe this politician with a long game; good sense told us she was probably positioning for a post-election leadership run after Todd Muller was sacrificed on the altar of Ardern. Even if Collins can't out-Ardern her opponent come September, she'll hold on. Her strategy is one based on people's short memories for her missteps since she got into parliament 18 years ago. The National Party also seems temporarily to have lost its appetite for the youngish and the novel. -

Dannervirke 16 April 1918 93 He Was the Second Son of 8
EULOGY FOR GEORGE GAIR, PATRON OF THE BNZBA, ON FRIDAY 4TH SEPTEMBER 2015 This is an edited version of the eulogy delivered at George’s funeral as delivered by Celebrant Barrie Mason JP George Frederick Gair was born in Dunedin on 13 October 1926, the eldest of 3 sons of teacher Frederick and Raymer Gair. His brothers are Frank and Roger, the last of whom died in a car accident in 1976. The family lived in the suburb of Belleknowes from where George began his schooling at High Street Primary School. So that George’s father Fred could get promoted in the education profession the family moved to Kaitaia where he could do his country service, but the family relocated again to Wellington in September 1939 on the day WW11 was declared. George was 13 when he began at Wellington College. At the opening assembly the headmaster told the boys that they were young men destined to be future leaders. This made a huge impression on George and set him on his journey into politics. Circumstances associated with the war saw George finish his secondary education at Wairarapa College and in 1944 he began an Arts degree at Victoria University. The following year he transferred to Auckland University from where he graduated with a Bachelor of Arts degree. As a student George did part-time reporting for the then Auckland Star newspaper. These journalistic skills proved valuable when as a 19 year old he was a member of the second wave of J Force troops that served in Japan as part of the Allied Occupation Force. -
The Hearing Report
The Hearing Report Fndngs and initial recommeridations of the Board of Health Committee on Hearing \ 1984 LIBRARY DEPARTMENT OF HEAlTH!r1J" WELlJNGTON ':)" COPYRIGHT With due acknowledgment, this report may be freely copied or quoted; but no.t for a commercial .ageI1cy or for commercial purposes.· 11 FOREWORD Hearing impairment is one of the most prevalent, preventable, yet ignored disabilities. Such an invisible handicap evokes little sympathy, yet thousands of New Zealanders and their families are affected by its complex personal and social ramifications. One of the main outcomes of deafness and hearing impairment is difficulty with interpersonal communication, leading to learn ing difficulties and failure to develop skills necessary for self advocacy. Social growth. may be compromised sometimes to a severe degree. While deaf and hearing impaired people were consulted in the course of producing this report, it is essential that further working parties involve the 'consumer' much more extensively. We, the hearing, often choose to 'turn a deaf ear' to the needs of the hearing impaired. This report draws together information from a wide range of sources. In the course of gathering data on deafness and hearing impairment in New Zealand, large gaps in our knowledge became apparent. A mismatch between needs and available services was also found, despite recommendations in earlier reports such as Deafness the invisible handicap. It is hoped that the. recom mendations set out in Part 4 of the Hearing Report will be followed by multidisciplinary cooperation and action, at national, regional, and local level. The work of the committee has culminated in a result which is required reading for those with responsibilities for the wellbeing of hearing impaired people. -

The History of Charitable Purpose Tax Concessions in New Zealand: Part 1*
The History of Charitable Purpose Tax Concessions in New Zealand: Part 1* MICHAEL GOUSMETT Michael Gousmett, FCIS PhD BCom(Hons) BBS DipTchg DipCM, is an independent Charities and Third Sector Researcher, and Founding Trustee of The New Zealand Third Sector Educational Trust CC47402. Just as taxpayers are required to meet their fiscal obligations or else face penalties, so too should those organisations with charitable purposes that benefit from fiscal privileges be required to demonstrate precisely how it is that they have benefitted the community through their activities, being activities that are both directly and indirectly subsidised by the taxpayer. Once charitable status has been granted, we need to go beyond the presumption of charitability to ensure that positive outcomes are being achieved as a consequence of the fiscal privileges available to charities. The nexus between charitable status and fiscal privilege is clear, for without the one the other does not follow. This is the first of a two-part article examining the history of the charitable purposes concession in New Zealand. 1.0 INTRODUCTION In 1767, in Jones v Williams the Lord Chancellor defined charity as “a gift to general public use, which extends to the poor as well as to the rich.”1 Tudor restated Jones in explaining that the Court of Chancery established “that a trust, in order to be charitable, must be of [a] public character, that is, it must be for the benefit of the community or an appreciably important section of the community.”2 Luxton suggests that the concept of public benefit “has for centuries been inherent in the legal concept of charity, and indeed explains equity’s particular tenderness for charitable trusts.”3 Of the Statute of Elizabeth of 1601,4 Jones stated that “[p]ublic benefit was the key to the statute, and the relief of poverty its principle manifestation.”5 Further, 6 Luxton states: * Part 2 of this article is scheduled to appear in the September 2013 issue of the New Zealand Journal of Taxation Law and Policy. -
Better See His Character, His Humour, His Passions, His Reactions to The
REVIEWS (BOOKS) 143 better see his character, his humour, his passions, his reactions to the ups and downs of his daily life, and his delight at the curious social circle in which he enveloped himself. One small complaint I have about the book is the printing. The publisher has used an ink which is not waterproof, and which, as I discovered on a grey and drizzly day, tends to ‘bleed’ immediately when it meets any liquid. ADRIANE RINI Massey University Marilyn Waring: The Political Years. By Marilyn Waring. Bridget Williams Books, Wellington, 2019. 376pp. NZ price: $39.99. ISBN: 9781988545936. MARILYN WARING’S PARLIAMENTARY CAREER was a long time ago and, as she says, the older woman is not the young woman of whom she is writing. Clearly, Waring’s eight-and-a-half years were difficult, traumatic and laden with expectation. Confronting her past required ‘a good dose of self-forgiveness’ (p.iii). The book is valuable on a number of levels. The literature on the Muldoon years is still relatively thin. Waring’s contribution, based on voluminous notes that she kept at the time, is, therefore, important, not least for its detailed accounts of caucus and of divisions within the National Party. There are many surprises and some reputations are enhanced (others should suffer). Moreover, of course, she and Colleen Dewe were only the fourteenth and fifteenth women elected to Parliament; initially, she was one of four women in the House. I imagine young women reading this memoir will find much of it hard to believe. It is not only Waring who was different 45 years ago. -
Van Asch Education Review Report January 2019
Van Asch Deaf Education Centre Sumner, Christchurch Confirmed Education Review Report Ko te Tamaiti te Pūtake o te Kaupapa The Child – the Heart of the Matter Education Review Report Van Asch Deaf Education Centre This review is designed to support schools that were experiencing difficulties at the time of the last review. ERO provides ongoing evaluation over the course of one-to-two years as the school works to improve its overall performance and build its self-review capability. This report answers key questions about the school’s background and the context for the review. The report also provides an evaluation of how effectively the school is addressing areas identified for review and development and the quality of its practices and systems for sustaining performance and ongoing improvement. Findings 1 Background and Context What is the background and context for this school’s review? The van Asch Deaf Education Centre (van Asch DEC) is a special school providing education and support services to children and young people who are deaf or hard of hearing. The centre caters for students from preschool to 21 years of age across the South Island and the southern half of the North Island. The van Asch DEC and Kelston Deaf Education Centre (KDEC) are part of a national educational provision for deaf students and operate under a combined board of trustees. In 2017, the Ministry of Education (MoE) appointed a limited statutory manager (LSM) to support the governance of KDEC in employment matters. In 2018, the powers of the LSM were extended to governance and the MoE appointed a further LSM with responsibility for finance and property across both centres.
