Welcome to the Campaign!

Thank you for your interest in our campaign.

The Campaign 4 Change has been established to advocate for a common electoral roll for New Zealand. That means abolishing the Maori seats and the Maori roll.

In order to build support, we are publishing our advertisement – see below – as widely as we can in the lead up to the General Election.

The spokesman for the campaign is David Round, a law lecturer at Canterbury University, chairman of the Independent Constitutional Review Panel, and author of
Truth or Treaty? Commonsense Questions about the Treaty of Waitangi.

The public policy think tank, the New Zealand Centre for Political Research, is providing support for the Campaign 4 Change. For more information on the NZCPR, see HERE.

Background Information

A great deal of background information on the need for a common electoral roll can be found on the NZCPR.com website, but in particular, a comprehensive paper,
The Maori Seats in Parliament by Professor Philip Joseph of Canterbury University can be read HERE. An article from 2013, Have your say on the future of the Maori
Seats
, is available HERE, and a more recent paper, Maori Seats Undermine Democracy, can be read HERE.
