The governing body and the local boards share the decision-making responsibilities of Auckland Council: the governing body focuses on the big picture and on region-wide strategic decisions local boards represent their local communities and make decisions on local issues, activities and facilities. Local boards also provide important local input into region-wide strategies and plans including those of the council- controlled organisations (CCOs). The areas for local boards were set by the Local Government Commission in March 2010 and can be seen in the map in Volume 1, Part 1, of the Annual Plan 2011/2012. There are three ways that local boards may acquire decision-making responsibility for activities: responsibility may be directly conferred by legislation – this applies to activities such as community engagement, preparing local board plans, negotiating, agreeing and monitoring local board agreements and proposing local bylaws. Local boards are also responsible for identifying the views of local people on regional strategies, policies, plans and bylaws and communicating these views to the governing body for non-regulatory activities only, responsibility may be allocated to the local boards by the governing body in line with principles in the legislation –local boards will make decisions on, and have oversight of, a broad range of local projects, programmes and activities and assets such as local parks, libraries, events, recreational facilities and cultural activities, except where decision making on a region-wide basis will better promote the well being of communities across Auckland for regulatory or non-regulatory activities, responsibility may be delegated to the local boards by the governing body – Under legislation, the governing body is responsible for decision-making and oversight of regulatory activities such as bylaws, consent processes, licensing, compliance, inspection and enforcement, and animal management. The governing body may delegate decision-making responsibility for regulatory activities to local boards, with some exceptions such as the making of bylaws. The governing body retains legal responsibility for any regulatory activities delegated to local boards. The governing body may also delegate responsibility for non-regulatory activities to local boards, in which case it retains legal responsibility for those activities Auckland Council Annual Plan 2011/2012 5 Volume 2: Local board information and agreements Introduction LOCAL BOARD ACTIVITIES The local board responsibilities provided for directly in legislation or allocated to boards have been summarised into the activities and sub-activities set out in the table below. A full list of responsibilities is in Volume 1, Part III, of the annual plan 2011/2012. Activity Sub-activity Community Local community development programmes Local community facilities Local community grants, information and advice Local community safety programmes Arts services Local arts programmes Local public art Local arts facilities Local arts grants and advice Events Local events Libraries Local library facilities and services Parks Local parks Recreation services Local recreation programmes Local recreation and leisure facilities, including pools Local recreation grants and advice Governance Local governance and advocacy Planning and policy Local board plans and agreements Local bylaw development Economic development Local business area planning and infrastructure Street environment and town centres Local street environment and town centres Environmental management Local environmental programmes DEVELOPING LOCAL BOARD PLANS During 2011, each local board will work with their communities to better understand the preferences of the people in their area and develop a plan by 31 October 2011 for the next three years. These local board plans must follow a special consultative procedure prior to adoption, as outlined in the Local Government Act 2002. The local board plan will outline the community’s aspirations and priorities, desired projects and potential funding. It will provide a foundation for each local board to develop a local board agreement with the governing body for each of the next three years, and will inform the council’s long-term plan. 6 Auckland Council Annual Plan 2011/2012 Volume 2: Local board information and agreements Introduction DEVELOPING LOCAL BOARD AGREEMENTS Each local board (LB) negotiates an agreement with the governing body (GB) annually for the delivery and funding of services in the local area. These agreements form part of the council’s annual plan. The local board agreement must include: the intended levels of service for each local activity and the way in which performance will be measured the estimated expenses of achieving and maintaining those intended levels of service how any expenses in excess of the funding allocated to the local board is to be met (including from local revenue sources). Local board agreements are based on the priorities and preferences contained in the relevant local board’s plan. As the first local board plans won’t be adopted until 30 October 2011, the first local board agreements are based on the information in Auckland Council’s Long-Term Plan 2010-2019, which contained the local board budgets for 2011/2012. This document includes the local board agreement covering the period from 1 July 2011 through to 30 June 2012. LOCAL BOARD BUDGETS Local boards have responsibility for overseeing local services including the sub-activities mentioned in the previous table, and have budgets to meet the cost of providing these services. Auckland Council’s Long-term Plan 2012-2022 will include a full review of the budgets, reflecting input from the first local board plans. Part III of Volume 1: Our region has an overview of the local board’s expenditure and income for 2011/2012. Auckland Council Annual Plan 2011/2012 7 Volume 2: Local board information and agreements Introduction CONSULTATION REPORT INTRODUCTION Auckland Council made the decisions in this annual plan after an extensive consultation process with the public. We released the Auckland Council draft annual plan 2011/2012 on 28 February 2011 and gave people five weeks in which to provide feedback. GETTING FEEDBACK ABOUT THE DRAFT ANNUAL PLAN During the consultation period, we encouraged you to have your say in a variety of ways. A summary of the draft annual plan was sent to every household in the region. This pamphlet included a freepost feedback form. The full draft annual plan was available to be read in libraries and council service centres as well as on our website. We ran an advertising campaign in local papers and on radio stations to encourage people to tell us what they thought about the proposals in the draft annual plan. We received 1,800 submissions1 on our proposals. Between 14 April and 2 May, hearings were held in local board areas across the region. More information on the hearings is provided below. LOCAL FEEDBACK Appendix A contains a list of the key issues from submitters on local board issues as determined by the number of submissions received.

  • 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. Government (University of the West Indies) 2008 B.A. History and Political Science (University of the West Indies) 2006 A Dissertation Submitted in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Interdisciplinary Studies In the Graduate Academic Unit of the School of Graduate Studies Supervisor: Joanna Everitt, PhD, Dept. of History and Politics Examining Board: Emery Hyslop-Margison, PhD, Faculty of Education, Chair Paul Howe, PhD, Dept. of Political Science Lee Chalmers, PhD, Dept. of Sociology External Examiner: Karen Bird, PhD, Dept. of Political Science McMaster University This dissertation is accepted by the Dean of Graduate Studies THE UNIVERSITY OF NEW BRUNSWICK April, 2013 © Tracy-Ann Johnson-Myers, 2013 ABSTRACT This dissertation examines the relationship between women and Māori descriptive and substantive representation in New Zealand’s House of Representatives as a result of the Mixed Member Proportional electoral system. 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.
