How Key handles any pressure to engage in Iraq has emerged as the wild card for his Washington swing. The Colin Craig factor Page 2 It remains unclear whether National will need the insurance policy that a guaranteed seat for Conservative Party leader Colin Craig would create.

  • JMAD New Zealand Media Ownership Report 2013
    JMAD New Zealand Media Ownership Report 2013 Published: November 28, 2013 Author: Merja Myllylahti This New Zealand Ownership Report 2013 published by AUT’s Centre for Journalism, Media and Democracy (JMAD) outlines how the financialisation of New Zealand media intensified as News Limited pulled out of Sky TV, and as lenders took 100 percent control of MediaWorks. In 2013, controversy erupted when it was revealed that a journalist’s phone records had been handed to a ministerial inquiry without her consent. The move was condemned by over 300 journalists as the government’s invasion of privacy was seen as a threat to media freedom. The government also passed legislation giving extra surveillance powers to the Government Communication Security Bureau (GCSB). This represented an institutional threat to journalistic autonomy. The report also finds that the bloggers and blogosphere gained prominence and influence in relation to the commercially driven mainstream media. In October 2013, there were 280 ranked blogs in New Zealand, and the top political blogs recorded high visitor numbers. Key events and trends concerning New Zealand media ownership Financial institutions take control of Sky TV and MediaWorks MediaWorks goes into receivership, keeps losing content rights Bauer media grows in influence, buys The Listener and other magazines Sky TV stirred, but not shaken by the Commerce Commission and new competitors Leading newspapers stall paywalls, local papers launch them APN and Fairfax newsrooms shrink, profit boosted by asset sales and job cuts This New Zealand Media Ownership Report is the third published by AUT’s Centre for Journalism, Media and Democracy (JMAD).

The thesis may not be reproduced elsewhere without the permission of the Author. 581 .509 9355 Ess ECOLOGY OF THE OLEARIA COLENSOI DOMINATED SUB-ALPINE SCRUB IN THE SOUTHERN RUAHINE RANGE, NEW ZEALAND. A thesis presented in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Science in Botany at Massey University New Zealand Peter Ronald van Essen 1992 Olearia colensoi in flower. Reproduced from a lithograph by Walter Fitch in Flora Novae-Zelandiae (J.D. Hooker 1852). Source: Alexander Turnbull Library in New Zealand Heritage, Paul Hamlyn Ltd ABSTRACT The Olearia colensoi (leatherwood or tupari) dominated southern Ruahine sub-alpine scrub is the largest continuous area of sub-alpine asteraceous scrub in New Zealand - the result of a lowered treeline due to climatic conditions characterised by high cloud cover, high rainfall, and high winds and the absence of high altitude Nothofagus species. Meteorological investigation of seven sites in the southern Ruahine found that altitude alone was the main environmental detenninant of climatic variation, particularly temperature regime. Temperatures varied between sites at a lapse rate of 0.61°C lOOm-1 while daily fluctuation patterns were uniform for all sites. Rainfall increased with altitude over the Range-at a rate of 3.8mm m-1. Cloud interception, unrecorded by standard rain­ gauges, adds significantly to total 'rainfall'. Vegetative phenology of Olearia colensoi is highly seasonal and regular with an annual growth flush from mid November to January.

  • Patterns of Political Donations in New Zealand Under MMP: 1996-2019
    Patterns of political donations in New Zealand under MMP: 1996-2019 Thomas Anderson and Simon Chapple Working Paper 20/05 Working Paper 20/02 2020 INSTITUTE FOR GOVERNANCE AND POLICY STUDIES WORKING PAPER 20/05 MONTH/YEAR November 2020 AUTHOR Thomas Anderson and Simon Chapple INSTITUTE FOR GOVERNANCE AND School of Government POLICY STUDIES Victoria University of Wellington PO Box 600 Wellington 6140 New Zealand For any queries relating to this working paper, please contact [email protected] DISCLAIMER The views, opinions, findings, and conclusions or recommendations expressed in this paper are strictly those of the author. They do not necessarily reflect the views of the Institute for Governance and Policy Studies, the School of Government or Victoria University of Wellington. Introduction The issue of political donations in New Zealand is regularly in the news. While the media report on their immediately newsworthy dimensions, no systematic data work has been done on political donations in New Zealand in the Mixed Member Proportional electoral system (MMP) period. The most comprehensive analysis covering the first part of the MMP period and before, which is now somewhat dated but contains a good summary of the existing literature, is in Bryce Edwards’s doctoral thesis (Edwards, 2003), especially Chapter Seven, “Party Finance and Professionalisation”. Donations are, of course, a subset of sources of Party finance, and it is in this context that Edwards deals with them. He draws eclectically on several sources for his qualitative and quantitative analysis, including largely descriptive work of political scientists, government reports, former politicians’ memoirs, historians and media reports, as well as using data on donations from the Electoral Commission.

    IN THE HIGH COURT OF NEW ZEALAND AUCKLAND REGISTRY CIV-2015-404-1845 [2016] NZHC 2496 JORDAN HENRY WILLIAMS v COLIN GRAEME CRAIG Hearing: 28 September 2016 Counsel: P A McKnight and A J Romanos for plaintiff S J Mills QC and J Graham for first defendant Judgment: 19 October 2016 REASONS FOR JUDGMENT OF KATZ J [Defence of qualified privilege] This judgment was delivered by me on 19 October 2016 at 11:00am Pursuant to Rule 11.5 High Court Rules Registrar/Deputy Registrar Solicitors: Langford Law, Wellington Chapman Tripp, Auckland Counsel: S J Mills QC, Barrister, Auckland P A McKnight, Quayside Chambers, Wellington A Romanos, Barrister, Wellington Introduction [1] Jordan Williams is the founder and Executive Director of an organisation known as “the Taxpayers’ Union”. Colin Craig is the founder and former leader of the Conservative Party, a political party that unsuccessfully contested the 2011 and 2014 Parliamentary elections. [2] Mr Williams brought these proceedings against Mr Craig, in defamation. He alleged that Mr Craig defamed him in remarks he made at a press conference on 29 July 2015 (“Remarks”) and in a leaflet that was made available at that conference and was subsequently delivered nationwide (“Leaflet”). I will refer to the particular statements that are said to bear defamatory meanings as “the statements”. Mr Williams claimed, amongst other things, that the natural and ordinary meaning of the statements was that he had told lies about Mr Craig, including that Mr Craig had sexually harassed a person and that he had sent her sexually explicit text messages. Mr Williams further alleged that a reasonable person who read or heard the statements would understand them to mean that Mr Williams is dishonest, deceitful, a serial liar, cannot be trusted and lacks integrity.

  • Five-Year Political Outlook: a Change at One of Two Elections Labour Limps
    HUGOvision Assessing the economic and political environment in New Zealand July 1 2014 Five-year political outlook: a change at one of two elections Page 3 Increasingly, the evidence points to a third term for John Key, though the numbers are still not cut and dried. That would presage more of the same but with some complications from support partners. Four focuses for a third term would be: seeking a durable balance in natural resources policy; an extension of the investment principle more widely in social policy; an accent on upgrading the teaching profession; and another assault on getting legislation and regulation regulatory environment, especially in environment and climate change policy as well as in monetary, tax, industry, education and social policy. If Key gets a third term, expect a change in 2017, though Labour would have to bed in a new leadership and work out its relationship with the Greens better than it has done.
