    nutrients Conference Report Nutrition Society of New Zealand Annual Conference Held in Wellington, New Zealand, 1–4 December 2015 Sheila Skeaff * and Lisa Te Morenga Department of Human Nutrition, University of Otago, Dunedin 9054, New Zealand; [email protected] * Correspondence: [email protected]; Tel.: +64-3-479-7944 Received: 4 February 2017; Accepted: 5 February 2017; Published: 5 March 2017 1. Preface The annual conference and scientific meeting of the Nutrition Society of New Zealand took place in Wellington, New Zealand from 1–4 December 2015. Every two years, a joint scientific meeting with the Nutrition Society of Australia is held, alternating between Australia and New Zealand. The 2015 meeting comprised four plenary sessions, 18 concurrent oral sessions and over 100 posters, providing an opportunity for more than 140 nutritional scientists to present their research. Abstracts for plenary talks and for members of the Nutrition Society of New Zealand are published here; abstracts for members of the Nutrition Society of Australia are published in the Journal of Nutrition and Intermediary Metabolism (June 2016). The aim of the combined meeting is to foster discussion and disseminate the results of nutrition-related research undertaken by the members of both societies. The theme of the 2015 conference was “Past, Present, Future: 100 years of nutrition”, inspired by the 100th anniversary of the ANZAC landing in Gallipoli. The first plenary session was titled ‘Past: Military Nutrition: Optimising soldier health and performance’ utlising speakers that work in national defence including Dr Chris Forbes-Ewan (Australia), Dr James McClung (USA), and Ms Nicola Martin (NZ).

The format of previous years has been followed but there is greater statistical analyses of the performance of prostheses especially for the hip and knee.

The report was presented to the committee at its meeting on 28 April 2009. This is my fourth and final annual report for the Northern Y Regional Ethics Committee. This year has been another full year for the members of the committee, as it has for the members and chairpersons of the other six ethics committees. During 2008, the committee reviewed 119 full applications and 114 expedited applications. The expedited review process has minimally reduced the work for the full committee, but has increased the workload for chairpersons, particularly deputy chairpersons. The appointment of suitably qualified committee members continues to be a problem. Vacancies increase the workload and pressure on existing members and can cause gaps in the range of committee expertise. I encourage the Minister of Health to consider reviewing the appointment process and to fill vacancies.

Influences include: international trends in nutritional science, changing ideas within the British establishment about state responsibility for the welfare of its citizens and the responsibility of the British Empire for its subjects; the mixture of outside scrutiny and support for projects from post-war international and multi-governmental organisations, such as the South Pacific Commission. Nutrition research and projects conducted in Fiji for the colonial South Pacific Health Service and the colonial government also sought to address territory-specific socio-political issues, especially Fiji’s complex ethnic poli,tics. This study examines the subtle ways in which nutrition studies and policies reflected and reinforced these wider socio-political trends. It suggests that historians should approach health research and policy as a patchwork of territorial, international, and regional ideas and priorities, rather than looking for a single causality. Keywords: Colonialism, Fiji, History of Nutrition, Maternal and Child Health, Race, South Pacific Introduction In 1937 the governor of Fiji reported to the British Colonial Office that the islands were a fertile paradise with ‘no shortage of food amongst any section of the population.
