    IND 1 NEW ZEALAND HANSARD PRECEDENT MANUAL Precedent Manual: Index 16 July 2004 IND 2 ABOUT THIS MANUAL The Precedent Manual shows how procedural events in the House appear in the Hansard report. It does not include events in Committee of the whole House on bills; they are covered by the Committee Manual. This manual is concerned with structure and layout rather than text - see the Style File for information on that. NB: The ways in which the House chooses to deal with procedural matters are many and varied. The Precedent Manual might not contain an exact illustration of what you are looking for; you might have to scan several examples and take parts from each of them. The wording within examples may not always apply. The contents of each section and, if applicable, its subsections, are included in CONTENTS at the front of the manual. At the front of each section the CONTENTS lists the examples in that section. Most sections also include box(es) containing background information; these boxes are situated at the front of the section and/or at the front of subsections. The examples appear in a column format. The left-hand column is an illustration of how the event should appear in Hansard; the right-hand column contains a description of it, and further explanation if necessary. At the end is an index.

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.

  • History of Statistics in New Zealand
    A History of Statistics in New Zealand Edited and written by HS Roberts Published by the New Zealand Statistical Association (Inc) PO Box 1731 Wellington ISBN 0 9597632 7 9 This book is copyright under the Berne convention. All rights reserved, no reproduction without permission © New Zealand Statistical Association (Inc) Production by Bateson Publishing Limited Design and layout by Unicorn Design & Pre Press Printed by Hutcheson, Bowman and Stewart DEDICATION This history is dedicated to Ian Douglas Dick who, more than anyone else, was responsible for bringing the applications of statistical methods into experimental scientific work in New Zealand. PREFACE The genesis for the publication of this book was the New Zealand Statistical Association’s Conference on the History of Statistics in New Zealand which was held at Victoria University on 1 July 1987. Attendees at the conference included a number of our elder statisticians such as Professors Jim Campbell and Geoff Jowett along with Stan Roberts. Some, but not all of the papers presented during the day were subsequently published in The New Zealand Statistician, and a sub committee of the New Zealand Statistical Association was established to investigate how we could best retain the knowledge of the past, and ensure that it was readily available to our younger new members. This book is the result. In 1996 Stan Roberts was asked by the Association to edit and to do the substantive writing of this text. His dedication and tenacity, particularly in tracking down old material, is apparent in the volume and quality of material presented. The Association would like to put on record its sincere thanks to Stan for all his work.
