2012 I.16E 1 Introduction Recommendation The Regulations Review Committee recommends that the House take note of this report. Purpose of this report Each year, by convention, the Regulations Review Committee produces a report on those of its activities that it has not reported separately to the House. This report is about the work completed by the Regulations Review Committee of the 50th Parliament between February and December 2012. The presentation of this report draws the House’s attention to our work and demonstrates our approach to the scrutiny of delegated legislation. Functions of the committee The Standing Orders of the House of Representatives set out the powers and functions of the committee, and allow us to bring matters within our mandate to the special attention of the House.1 The committee scrutinises all regulations considers draft regulations referred by Ministers of the Crown and reports back to them examines regulation-making powers in bills investigates complaints about the operation of regulations conducts inquiries into matters related to regulations. We met 25 times from February to December 2012, and presented three reports to the House. These reports are printed separately and will be included in the Appendices to the Journals of the House of Representatives. They are listed in Appendix D. In 2012 we made thirteen reports to other committees about regulation-making powers in bills, and dealt with many other matters that did not culminate in separate reports to the House. Acknowledgment of staff We wish to acknowledge the vital role of committee staff in ensuring we can complete our scrutiny functions. We particularly value their clear, professional advice on all aspects of our business. 1 The relevant Standing Orders are attached as Appendix B. 5 I.16E ACTIVITIES REPORT 2012 2 Examination of regulations Standing Order 314(1) empowers us to examine all regulations. In 2012, Standing Order 3(1) defined “regulations” in terms of the Regulations (Disallowance) Act 1989.2 When examining a regulation, we consider whether it should be drawn to the special attention of the House on any of the grounds set out in Standing Order 315(2). In 2012, most regulations were published in the annual Statutory Regulations (SR) series, but some were exempt from the requirements of the Acts and Regulations Publication Act 1989.3 These instruments, then known as “deemed regulations”, are generally publicly notified in the New Zealand Gazette, and must be presented to the House in the same way as other regulations.4 In this chapter, we deal with regulations published in the SR series; deemed regulations are dealt with in Chapter 3. Our scrutiny process Examination of regulations is the backbone of our work. We examine each regulation as soon as possible after it has been published. In the year from 16 February 2012 until 6 December 2012 we scrutinised 557 regulations: SR 2011/299–2011/307, SR 2011/310, SR 2011/312–2011/433 and SR 2012/1–2012/425. We raised any issues with the responsible Ministers, departments, or agencies. After receiving their responses we decided whether to proceed further. A list of the regulations about which we sought information is in Appendix E. Routine scrutiny In 2012, we continued to seek explanations as to why regulations did not comply with the Cabinet Manual’s “28-day rule”.5 The principle underlying this rule is that the law should be available and capable of being understood before it comes into force. Non-compliance with the 28-day rule is the issue that arises most frequently in our routine scrutiny work. Although we are almost always satisfied with the explanation we receive from the responsible agency, we consider that this work continues to be important, because it demonstrates that Parliament takes an active interest in ensuring the accessibility of subordinate legislation. To support this work, we recommend that the Government encourage all agencies with responsibility for instruments that do not comply with the 28- day rule to proactively advise the committee of the reasons for non-compliance and whether and when a waiver was obtained. We continued to seek explanations for any regulations with a retrospective effect, also on the basis of the principle that the law should be available and capable of being understood before it comes into force. This is particularly important where requirements are imposed on the general public. 2 The definition of “regulations” is attached as Appendix C. The Regulations (Disallowance) Act 1989 was repealed in August 2013 by the Legislation Act 2012. 3 The Acts and Regulations Publication Act 1989 was repealed in August 2013 by the Legislation Act 2012. 4 No later than 16 sitting days after the day on which they are made, pursuant to section 4 of the Regulations (Disallowance) Act 1989.

  • The Mixed Member Proportional Representation System and Minority Representation
    The Mixed Member Proportional Representation System and Minority Representation: A Case Study of Women and Māori in New Zealand (1996-2011) by Tracy-Ann Johnson-Myers MSc.

The Mixed Member Proportional electoral system was adopted in New Zealand in 1996 to change the homogenous nature of the New Zealand legislative assembly. As a proportional representation system, MMP ensures that voters’ preferences are proportionally reflected in the party composition of Parliament. Since 1996, women and Māori (and other minority and underrepresented groups) have been experiencing significant increases in their numbers in parliament. Despite these increases, there remains the question of whether or not representatives who ‘stand for’ these two groups due to shared characteristics will subsequently ‘act for’ them through their political behaviour and attitudes.

Dame Margaret Bazley DNZM, Hon DLit Registrar of Pecuniary Interests of Members of Parliament 3 REGISTER OF PECUNIARY INTERESTS OF MEMBERS OF PARLIAMENT: SUMMARY OF ANNUAL RETURNS J. 7 Introduction Since 2005 Standing Orders have provided a system for members of Parliament to register their pecuniary interests, such as the assets, debts and gifts they may each have accumulated or received. It provides a protection against arguments that a possible conflict might arise between a member’s public duty and private interests. If certain things are made known and registered, concerns regarding conflicts of interest can be minimised. The requirements are set out in Standing Order 159 and Appendix B of the Standing Orders of the House of Representatives. It is a register designed to protect members in the event of scrutiny, rather than being a recital of wealth and indebtedness.
