Part Ill amends the Stamp and Cheque Duties Act 1971 by redefining the term "public authority". The amendment is to ensure that the Stamp Duty exemption enjoyed by public authorities is confined to property held by public authorities on behalf of the Crown.

  • The Origins and Operations of the Bulk Funding of Teachers’ Salaries in New Zealand: 1815-2015
    Copyright is owned by the Author of the thesis. Permission is given for a copy to be downloaded by an individual for the purpose of research and private study only. The thesis may not be reproduced elsewhere without the permission of the Author. A case study of a contentious education policy: The origins and operations of the bulk funding of teachers’ salaries in New Zealand: 1815-2015 A thesis presented in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Education Doctorate in Education at Massey University, Manawatu, New Zealand Perry David Bayer 2015 Abstract Bulk funding as an education policy was immensely controversial, and served to polarise the New Zealand educational community and the wider New Zealand public throughout the eight years of its operation between 1992 and 2000. Even now, fifteen years after its demise, the research undertaken for this thesis shows that bulk funding still has the power to divide people and to excite strong passions. Both the supporters and the opponents of bulk funding tended to demonise the opposite side. Each side would also tend to feel that they had uncovered profound educational truths and that they had the right arguments on their side. Therefore, each side tended to believe that their opponents could negate their arguments only by resorting to ‘slanderous’ speech and to ‘libelous’ writings. Some of the key participants in the bulk funding debate were able to be interviewed for this thesis. It quickly became apparent just how wide the gap between the two parties was during the 1990s and is still today.

  • Immigration and Race Relations
    Immigration and Race Relations Kiri Wong I. INTRODUCTION This article is in three parts. The first considers and critiques arguments for a multicultural nation, focusing on the special status of Maori as a First Nation people and as a reason to prefer biculturalism over multiculturalism. The second part sets out the legal and political bases that the government of New Zealand uses to justify its exclusive power to make policy decisions in New Zealand, and focuses largely on race relations: arguments by the Crown that assert its exclusive sovereignty over Maori and the Treaty of W aitangi ("the Treaty") in a legal and political sense. Any policy the government makes regarding immigration is seen as flowing from the Crown's sovereign powers to make laws and policy decisions, so immigration is not specifically discussed in this part of the article. Finally, the many and varied ways in which Maori may challenge the assumptions of the Crown are outlined in the third part, which sets out arguments from a Maori perspective regarding sovereignty, te tino rangatiratanga, and the Treaty as a moral and political force. Immigration issues are explored in more detail and the Treaty is set out as the basis for a bicultural nation. H. A MULTICULTURAL NATION 1. Multiculturalism: What is it? "Multicultural" is a word that is commonly used to describe New Zealand society today. 1 But what does it really mean? The term "multicultural" originated in popular discourse in the United States, and usage soon spread to See, for example, Bell, Inventing New Zealand: Everyday Myths of Pakeha Identity (1996) 187.

One central assumption of theories of electoral change is that those in power only change electoral rules strategically, in order to protect their self-interest.

It was also a challenging year internationally in the information and publication arenas affected by the worldwide recession. Fortunately this was offset in New Zealand by the longevity of the high exchange rate of the dollar. All this was at the same time as development and use of mobile and social networking technologies blossomed and “googling” became a household term. There were two particularly significant changes made to the Library’s infrastructure and planning processes.
