DairyNZ Chief Executive Dr Tim Mackle says they want New Zealanders to be proud of their position as the world’s best pastoral dairy farmers. For the past five years Go Dairy had focused on encouraging career changers to give farming a go.

Any loss of tikanga or kawa is detrimental to our people. The Crown has restricted us in so many ways. We have been left with almost no place to exist as Māori. Our ability to exercise rangatiratanga has been taken away from us. In Kauwhata, a resurgence has begun, but there is still a long way to go.1 - Rodney Graham 1.

  • 1 Representation Review – Initial Proposal Summary Document What's It All About? Local Authorities Around the Country Are Re
    Representation Review – Initial Proposal Summary Document What’s it all about? Local authorities around the country are required to make decisions about their representation arrangements every six years, following a process contained in the Local Electoral Act 2001. One of the principles of the Act is to implement ‘fair and effective representation for individuals and communities’. The last time the Ōtorohanga District Council undertook a review was in 2018, but the Council decision in April 2021 to establish Māori Wards triggered a requirement to review arrangements again. Councils must determine whether to have wards or not, whether to elect some councillors by wards and the rest at large; if there are to be wards the proposed number; the proposed name and boundary of each ward; and the number of councillors proposed to be elected by the electors of each ward. Councils must also make decisions about Community Boards. What does Council’s Initial Proposal look like? On 17 August 2021 the Ōtorohanga District Council reviewed its representation arrangements and resolved that the following proposal apply for Council elections to be held on 8 October 2022: It is proposed that the Council comprise 9 members elected from six wards, and the Mayor elected at- large. The six wards reflect the following identified communities of interest: Ward Communities of Interest Kāwhia/Tihiroa Ward The communities of Kāwhia and Aotea together with, but not limited to, the rural areas of Oparau, Hauturu, Ngutunui, Tihiroa, Te Kawa and Honikiwi.
