ARTICLE Family planning unmet need and access among iTaukei women in New Zealand and Fiji Radilaite Cammock, Peter Herbison, Sarah Lovell, Patricia Priest ABSTRACT AIM: The aim of the study was to identify unmet need and family planning access among indigenous Fijian or iTaukei women living in New Zealand and Fiji. METHOD: A cross-sectional survey was undertaken between 2012–2013 in five major cities in New Zealand: Auckland, Hamilton, Wellington, Christchurch and Dunedin; and in three suburbs in Fiji. Women who did not want any (more) children but were not using any form of contraception were defined as having an unmet need. Access experiences involving cost and health provider interactions were assessed. RESULTS: Unmet need in New Zealand was 26% and similar to the unmet need found in Fiji (25%). Cost and concern over not being seen by a female provider were the most problematic access factors for women. CONCLUSION: There is a need for better monitoring and targeting of family planning services among minority Pacific groups, as the unmet need found in New Zealand was three times the national estimate overall and similar to the rate found in Fiji. Cost remains a problem among women trying to access family planning services. Gendered traditional roles in sexual and reproductive health maybe an area from which more understanding into cultural sensitivities and challenges may be achieved. amily planning is considered an to be in control of when to have or limit the important tool in averting maternal number and timing of children, giving them deaths and ensuring women’s repro- the autonomy and self-preservation that is F 1 ductive needs are met. -

Making politics go well down under: Public journalism in New Zealand daily newspapers A thesis presented in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Management in Communication Management at Massey University, Wellington New Zealand David Venables 2008 Making Politics Go Well Down under: Public Journalism in New Zealand Daily Newspapers - Page i Abstract The literature on the use of public journalism suggests that it can lead to different news coverage than is traditionally provided by the news media. Specifically, these differences have been identified in story content, use of different sources and use of mobilising information. This thesis asks whether such differences can be identified in newspapers’ coverage of the 2001 Local Body Elections in New Zealand. The research involved content analysis of New Zealand’s six largest daily newspapers, three of them with experience of using public journalism and three with no such experience. Interviews were also conducted with two or three senior journalists involved in organising each paper’s election campaign in order to explore their goals for the election coverage and evaluation of it. The results mirror those of previous research by showing significant differences in the coverage of the newspapers with public journalism experience in relation to some factors, but not others. The papers with a public journalism background consistently used more non-elite sources than the traditional papers, but did not consistently use more female sources. -

Vincent Pike Was Born in Shepton Mallet, Somersetshire, England, on 4 February 1827, the Son of James and Mary Pike
Vincent Pike was born in Shepton Mallet, Somersetshire, England, on 4 February 1827, the son of James and Mary Pike. His father was a tinman. Little is known of Vincent's early life other than that he was a linen draper when, in the parish of Trinity, St Philip and Jacob, Bristol, on 7 September 1846, he married Frances Elizabeth Renwick, daughter of Thomas Renwick, a hatter. They were to have a family of four sons and one daughter. The spelling of the surname was altered to 'Pyke' soon after the marriage. The Pykes emigrated to South Australia in 1851, then moved to Victoria where Vincent mined for gold at Mt Alexander until 1853 when he opened a store at Montgomery Hill, Forest Creek, Castlemaine. An effective advocate of miners' rights, in 1855 Pyke was elected as a representative for Castlemaine district in the Legislative Council; with H. S. Chapman he urged the introduction of election by ballot. In 1856 he was elected to represent Castlemaine Boroughs in the new Legislative Assembly, and in 1857 was appointed Victoria's emigration agent in England; a change of government meant that Pyke never took up the position. In late 1859 he became warden and magistrate at Sandhurst, Bendigo. Resigning in 1860, Pyke was again elected to represent Castlemaine Boroughs, and subsequently held the offices of commissioner of trade and customs, commissioner of public works, president of the Board of Lands and Works, and several other civil service positions. In 1862, for reasons of both health and finance, Pyke arrived in Otago, New Zealand, where on 26 May the provincial government appointed him a commissioner charged with organising a goldfields department. -

A Governor-General's Perspective
THE ARCHITECTURE OF ELECTIONS IN NEW ZEALAND: A GOVERNOR-GENERAL’S PERSPECTIVE BY RT HON SIR ANAND SATYANAND, GNZM, QSO* I. INTRODUCTION I begin by greeting everyone in the languages of the realm of New Zealand, in English, Mäori, Cook Island Mäori, Niuean, Tokelauan and New Zealand Sign Language. Greetings, Kia Ora, Kia Orana, Fakalofa Lahi Atu, Taloha Ni and as it is the morning (Sign). I then specifically greet you: Rt Hon Jim Bolger, Chancellor of the University of Waikato; Professor Roy Crawford, Vice-Chancellor; Professor Bradford Morse, Dean of Te Piringa – Fac- ulty of Law; Distinguished Guests otherwise; Ladies and Gentlemen. Thank you for the invitation to give this public lecture for the Faculty of Law. Before beginning, I want to welcome you, Professor Morse, in your new role as Dean of Uni- versity of Waikato’s Faculty of Law. With your previous experience at the University of Ottawa in Canada and your considerable scholarship in indigenous law in Canada, you bring to New Zea- land a valuable perspective on our country, on particular issues relating to Mäoridom.1 I wish you well in your role. You join the University at a time when it has come of age – and is celebrating the 20th anniver- sary of the establishment of the Faculty. You will find that the University and this Faculty has a strong and rewarding connection with the Waikato-Tainui iwi. I understand the Faculty’s Mäori name, Te Piringa, was provided by the late Arikinui Dame Te Atairangikaahu, the then Mäori Queen. Translated as “the coming together of people”, it links the Faculty to the manawhenua of Waikato-Tainui. -
Māori Land and Land Tenure in New Zealand: 150 Years of the Māori Land Court
77 MĀORI LAND AND LAND TENURE IN NEW ZEALAND: 150 YEARS OF THE MĀORI LAND COURT R P Boast* This is a general historical survey of New Zealand's Native/Māori Land Court written for those without a specialist background in Māori land law or New Zealand legal history. The Court was established in its present form in 1865, and is still in operation today as the Māori Land Court. This Court is one of the most important judicial institutions in New Zealand and is the subject of an extensive literature, nearly all of it very critical. There have been many changes to Māori land law in New Zealand since 1865, but the Māori Land Court, responsible for investigating titles, partitioning land blocks, and various other functions (some of which have later been transferred to other bodies) has always been a central part of the Māori land system. The article assesses the extent to which shifts in ideologies relating to land tenure, indigenous cultures, and customary law affected the development of the law in New Zealand. The article concludes with a brief discussion of the current Māori Land Bill, which had as one of its main goals a significant reduction of the powers of the Māori Land Court. Recent political developments in New Zealand, to some extent caused by the government's and the New Zealand Māori Party's support for the 2017 Bill, have meant that the Bill will not be enacted in its 2017 form. Current developments show once again the importance of Māori land issues in New Zealand political life. -

Treaties Nobody Counted On
View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE provided by Open Journal Systems at the Victoria University of Wellington Library 653 TREATIES NOBODY COUNTED ON R P Boast* This article is based on the author's inaugural professorial lecture delivered at Victoria University of Wellington in March 2011. The author's subject is treaties and treaty-like agreements, entered into between the New Zealand government and Māori after the Treaty of Waitangi. In the early 1880s there was a prolonged process of negotiation between representatives of an indigenous and autonomous Polynesian state; a state which a prominent New Zealand historian has described as being "two thirds the size of Belgium" which "not all historians have noticed".1 This autonomous state had its own monarch, a port of its own, and was actively trying to build its economy, manage its own lands, and develop overseas trade and commerce. The process of negotiation took a number of years, involved frequent consultations at the highest level, was embodied in a number of documents, and was given effect to in legislation. To this day, those negotiations and the agreements that came out of them remain pivotal to the indigenous groups affected and are well-remembered. I am speaking of the King Country, and the negotiations that took place in the 1880s in which two Native Ministers, John Bryce and John Ballance, were involved, as well as King Tawhiao and a number of leading rangatira of the Ngāti Maniapoto, Ngāti Raukawa and other tribes.2 The historian I have referred to is of course Professor James Belich, who at the end of his The New Zealand Wars, expressed his puzzlement that the persistence of this independent Māori state in the middle of the North Island could remain off the historical radar for so long.
