New Zealand Hansard Precedent Manual
IND 1 NEW ZEALAND HANSARD PRECEDENT MANUAL Precedent Manual: Index 16 July 2004 IND 2 ABOUT THIS MANUAL The Precedent Manual shows how procedural events in the House appear in the Hansard report. It does not include events in Committee of the whole House on bills; they are covered by the Committee Manual. This manual is concerned with structure and layout rather than text - see the Style File for information on that. NB: The ways in which the House chooses to deal with procedural matters are many and varied. The Precedent Manual might not contain an exact illustration of what you are looking for; you might have to scan several examples and take parts from each of them. The wording within examples may not always apply. The contents of each section and, if applicable, its subsections, are included in CONTENTS at the front of the manual. At the front of each section the CONTENTS lists the examples in that section. Most sections also include box(es) containing background information; these boxes are situated at the front of the section and/or at the front of subsections. The examples appear in a column format. The left-hand column is an illustration of how the event should appear in Hansard; the right-hand column contains a description of it, and further explanation if necessary. At the end is an index.

Governing Sustainable Agriculture: A case study of the farming of highly erodible hill country in the Manawatu-Whanganui region of New Zealand A thesis presented in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Agriculture and Environment Palmerston North, New Zealand Janet Isabel Reid 2013 Abstract Abstract The sustainability of agriculture and what constitutes sustainable agriculture is the focus of ongoing challenge and debate in New Zealand. In particular, the sustainability of current farming practices are targeted for criticism and demands made for fundamental changes in farming. This research adds to the debate by providing insights into how an aspect of farming that has environmental implications is governed. The farming of highly erodible hill country (HEHC) in the Manawatu-Whanganui region is the single qualitative case studied and how the farming of HEHC is governed and the reasons why it is governed in this way are the research questions answered. Foucault’s governmentality theory is the basis of the theoretical framework which is expanded to include the concept of farming knowledge-culture to recognise and capture farming as a form of government. Results are structured into a national, regional and farm level phase and are based on data drawn from semi structured interviews and documents. This research provides an example of the difficulties farmers face, in balancing the diverse and conflicting demands placed on them to farm sustainably. -
This Is New Zealand Reflects on Who We Thought We Were, Who We Think We Are
curated by Robert Leonard and Aaron Lister, with Moya Lawson First, a Word from the CuratorsRobert Leonard . .and . Aaron Lister Teasing out connections between images, ideology, and identity, our exhibition This Is New Zealand reflects on who we thought we were, who we think we are. Taking a critical look at stories we’ve told ourselves and others, it asks: Who and what have been included and excluded? And who is this mythical ‘we’? This Is New Zealand emerged out of our thinking about New Zealand’s participation in the Venice Biennale. New Zealand has been going to the Biennale since 2001, and it looms large for our art scene. The Biennale is the world’s largest, most important, and longest-running regular contemporary-art mega-show, and our participation declares our desire to be ‘international’, to be part of the wider art discussion. However, some of the artists we have sent to Venice have taken it as an opportunity to tackle old questions Lisa Reihana (sunglasses) and the Governor-General, of national identity, riffing on the Biennale’s Her Excellency the Rt. Hon. Dame Patsy Reddy (cloak), arrive in style on the Disdotona—a giant old-school national-pavilion structure. Our gondola, propelled by eighteen rowers from the show includes three examples from Venice. Canottieri Querini Rowing Club—for the opening of Reihana’s exhibition Emissaries, New Zealand Michael Stevenson’s 2003 project This Is pavilion, Venice Biennale, 10 May 2017. ‘It was the Trekka looks like a belated trade display wonderful coming down the Grand Canal. I felt like a queen’, said Reihana. -

Controlling Anti-Gay Hate Speech in New Zealand the Living Word Case from Beginning to End
Controlling Anti-gay Hate Speech in New Zealand The Living Word Case from beginning to end by Calum Bennachie A thesis Submitted to the Victoria University of Wellington in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Education Victoria University of Wellington 2009 ii Abstract This thesis explores the two attempts to control hate speech against the lesbian, gay and bisexual communities in New Zealand. It argues that freedom of speech is not absolute and there are methods to control it for the good of society. The thesis examined the primary documents, regarding Living Word, tracing the history of that attempt to control the hatred generated by these videos. It examines what happened during that period and how discourse developed, and provides recommendations for future consideration. I argue the videos in question form part of the continuum of discourse surrounding sexual orientation, and inform, and are informed by, the discourse surrounding homosexuality in wider society. Seen as being at one end of the spectrum of that discourse, they encourage discrimination and hatred against members of the non-heterosexual communities, and may therefore be regarded as hate speech. There is little in New Zealand that addresses hate speech against these communities. There have been two attempts to control this type of hate speech. The first was regarding Paul Cameron’s Exposing the AIDS Scandal (1988) before the Indecent Publications Tribunal, seeking to have the publication ruled indecent as it held gay men and people living with AIDS as inherently inferior to other people, and it demeaned and degraded them. -
