  • Cq Stocktake: Developing Cultural Capability to Succeed in New Zealand
    P a g e | 1 CQ STOCKTAKE: DEVELOPING CULTURAL CAPABILITY TO SUCCEED IN NEW ZEALAND REPORT ON THE RESPONSE TO THE SUPERDIVERSITY STOCKTAKE FORUM 8 MARCH 2016 Sponsored by 618996_1 P a g e | 2 FOREWORD FROM THE CHIEF EXECUTIVE OF AUCKLAND COUNCIL – STEPHEN TOWN Auckland Council was a proud supporter of the working conference, Response to the Superdiversity Stocktake: What Next? which followed the Superdiversity Stocktake. New Zealand now has the highest rate per capita of Immigration in the OECD. 70 per cent of those migrants settle in Auckland. Auckland is home to people of more than 200 different ethnicities, with Māori, Asian and Pacific peoples making up almost 50 per cent of the population. This makes our city one of the most ethnically diverse in the world. Auckland Council’s goal is for Auckland to be a strong, inclusive and equitable society, ensuring opportunity for all. We want to be ‘the world’s most liveable city’. We know that diverse and tolerant cities enjoy improved social cohesion, innovation, higher productivity, economic growth and robust governance. What will make Auckland great is our ability to engage with, leverage off, and benefit from the super diverse talents of all Aucklanders. Change requires real openness of thinking, courage, and a willingness to step out of our comfort zones. Change requires that we understand our limitations and develop new skills to help us do things differently. The biggest risk we face is we’re not changing fast enough. The conference heard from leaders in business, government and academia on the organisational, policy and leadership challenges inherent in this journey.

  • Hamilton City Council
    Submission by Hamilton City Council WATER SERVICES BILL 26 February 2021 1.0 SUMMARY OF HCC’S KEY POINTS AND RECOMMENDATIONS 1.1 HCC’s previous submission on the new Crown agency Taumata Arowai supported the agency and resource management reforms that would provide clear, consistent leadership and guidance, build capability, support suppliers, manage risks and improve environmental performance. 1.2 We support the overall intent, direction and proposals in the Water Services Bill insofar as it provides a regulatory framework aligning with fundamental principles of drinking water safety. 1.3 Under three waters reform, there will be different models of service delivery for water services. The Bill does not provide enough clarity on these models as they relate to owners, operators and suppliers and their points of supply and the division of responsibilities. The duty to manage, monitor, notify and remediate risk has not been considered in the context of the best entity to comply with duties. 1.4 We recommend a review of the models of service delivery, suppliers and their points of supply, source water management, and a re‐evaluation on how these relate to powers and duties. 1.5 HCC also recommends better direction and integration of wastewater and stormwater services in the Bill. Giving effect to Te Mana o te Wai could also be better integrated throughout the Bill. 1.6 Emergency powers of Taumata Arowai as they relate to civil defence is not supported as there appears to be an over‐ride of powers. A Territorial Authority’s own powers to enforce measures to protect supplies must also be strengthened in the Bill.

  • The New Zealand Constitutional Review Charles Chauval
    AUSTRALASIAN STUDY OF PARLIAMENT GROUP Annual Conference, Darwin 3-5 October 2012 “Constitutions – reviewed, revised and adapted” * * * * Paper by New Zealand MPs Charles Chauvel and Louise Upston “The New Zealand Constitutional Review” New Zealand is undertaking a constitutional review which stemmed from the confidence and supply agreement between the National Party and Maori Party after the November 2008 general election. A final report summarising the views of New Zealanders on constitutional issues will be submitted to the Cabinet by the end of 2013 and the Government then has six months in which to respond. A linking project is the Independent Review of MMP being undertaken by the Electoral Commission which will make its final proposals to the Minister of Justice by 31 October 2012. Background A constitution can be seen as the rules about how we live together as a country. Unlike most other countries, New Zealand does not have a law called “The Constitution.” Instead, the rules for how the country is governed are in what is often called an unwritten constitution. Most of it is in fact written down in various laws, rules, and practices - just not in a single document. Important elements of our constitution include: Laws passed by New Zealand‟s Parliament such as the Constitution Act 1986, the Electoral Act 1993 and the New Zealand Bill of Rights Act 1990 British laws adopted by New Zealand through the Imperial Laws Application Act 1988, for example the Magna Carta. ASPG: Charles Chauvel MP & Louise Upston MP Darwin, Australia: 3&5 October 2012 Page 1 The powers of our head of state, the Queen (or King) – for example the power to appoint the Governor-General, whose role is established by the Letters Patent Constituting the Office of Governor-General.
