Cardinal John Dew, Moderator of the Tribunal, announced the decision on behalf of the Bishops saying “The Tribunal process is an important pastoral ministry within the Church at a very difficult time in people’s lives seeking an annulment of their marriage. The Bishops wanted to ensure that cost was no longer a barrier to people seeking an annulment.” Those who are currently undertaking an annulment process have been informed by Tribunal staff of the change directly in relation to their particular circumstances.

    Studia Anglica Posnaniensia 52(4), 2017 doi: 10.1515/stap-2017-0019 BETWEEN ANZAC DAY AND WAITANGI DAY ANNA CZERWIŃSKA∗ Adam Mickiewicz University, Poznań ABSTRACT This paper discusses the historical background and significance of the two most important national holidays in New Zealand: Waitangi Day and Anzac Day. Waitangi Day is celebrated on the 6th February and it commemorates the signing of the Treaty of Waitangi between British representatives and a number of Māori chiefs in 1840. Following the signing of the treaty New Zealand became effectively a British colony. Anzac Day is celebrated on 25th April, i.e., on the anniversary of the landing of soldiers of the Australian and New Zealand Army Corps (ANZAC) on the Gallipoli peninsula in Turkey in 1915, during World War One. There are three major differences between these two holidays: the process of those days becoming national holidays, the level of contestation, and the changing messages they have carried. The present study analyzes the national discourse around Anzac Day and Waitangi Day in New Zealand, and attempts to reveal how the official New Zealand government rhetoric about national unity becomes deconstructed. The following analysis is based on a selection of online articles from the New Zealand Herald and Stuff published in Auckland and Wellington, respectively. Both cities are populated by multi-ethnic groups, with Auckland featuring the largest Māori population.1 Keywords: Anzac Day; Waitangi Day; New Zealand; national holidays; identity. 1.

  • CANNABIS REFERENDUM 2020 Introduction
    Media Analysis NEW ZEALAND CANNABIS REFERENDUM 2020 Introduction This analysis looks at 281 New Zealand-based media articles and opinion pieces as they appeared online during the cannabis referendum campaign period between May and October 2020. The objective was to assess the extent to which the set of articles and op-eds, as a whole, provided balanced coverage of both sides of debate – consistent with the New Zealand Media Council’s first principle of “accuracy, fairness and balance.”1 All the articles obtained were based on the list provided by NZ Politics Daily, a comprehensive, non- partisan list of articles, columns, and analysis relating to New Zealand politics and government, produced by the Democracy Project at Victoria University Wellington. This list was used to maintain the neutrality of the analysis and to avoid any accusation of searching for articles that leaned to one side or the other of the debate. There were 203 news items and 78 opinion pieces. Accuracy, fairness and balance was assessed across a variety of measures: the headline used, the number of people quoted within each piece arguing one or other side of the referendum question, and the proportion of content arguing each side of the campaign issues. Experts who quoted research or data were considered to be neutral. Any observed imbalance in the content or coverage across the set of news items and opinion pieces is interpreted as evidence of overall bias in reporting on the referendum question. The report was commissioned by Family First New Zealand. The analysis has been audited by an Emeritus Professor who specialises in research methods and statistics.

  • Matthew Edwards – Submission on NZME/Fairfax Draft Determination
    To whom it may concern As a background to this submission, I would just like to say that I have never made a ‘formal’ submission or the like to any government or regulatory body before. However I consider the matter of the proposed NZME-Fairfax merger is of such importance that I want to lend my voice of concern to the issues and implications of such a merger, specifically on the matter of plurality. It’s so important that i’ve come home to write this on a day when i should be very busy with real paid work. Firstly, I would like to give support to the Commission’s draft determination as it relates to concerns over plurality in the New Zealand market and also the conclusions reached in the Foster and Levy Expert Review of the Draft Determination as it relates to plurality. Although not employed in the industry i have great interest in media and journalism and especially in objective, balanced and concise coverage of local politics and the industry’s role in holding to account, those in power without fear or favour. I believe that corporate, revenue driven media whose income relies in great part on advertising revenue generated from large corporate and multi-national advertisers, has a vested interest in maintaining and promoting the most corporate friendly political parties, policies and governments. Further to this point, corporate-friendly political parties have a vested interest in at the very least co-operating and colluding with the media operations who might best serve the political party’s interests.

With a Return on Equity of 10.8% – against a target of 10.1% - it is pleasing to note consistent growth over the past four years in these two elements of our financial performance.

    Petition to 'get rid' of Mike Hosking has more than 14,000 supporters | Stuff.co.nz 23/06/16, 6:16 PM Petition to 'get rid' of Mike Hosking has more than 14,000 supporters Last updated 21:41, June 21 2016 SUPPLIED More than 14,000 people want to "get rid" of TVNZ personality and Seven Sharp host Mike Hosking. A petition to be sent to the Government demanding Mike Hosking be removed from television screens has now clocked up more than 14,000 signatories in just over a week. Started by lawyer Dan Wayman the petition asks that Mike Hosking "be removed from public broadcasting at TVNZ". Wayman, who describes himself as a New Zealand-enrolled barrister-solicitor who divides his time between New Zealand and Shanghai, where he works at the British Consulate, says he started the petition because he "just felt something needed to be done really". SUPPLIED Mike Hosking: "He just does not get it." "[Hosking's] socially irresponsible comments are damaging to the New Zealand public, and especially as the face of the national broadcaster in the 7pm timeslot, being a family show, I think it's harmful for the next generation to receive those types of sentiments from Mr Hosking." READ MORE: * TVNZ to review complaints about Mike Hosking's comments on Andrew Judd * Had enough of Mike Hosking? * Mayor at centre of Mike Hosking controversy feels 'inspired' by public feedback * A walk in the rain with Mike Hosking The petition has certainly stirred up the passions of those signing, many of whom have felt compelled to contribute their own views on why they think Hosking should be "removed from public broadcasting".
