Local Body Candidate Feedback 2016

 

This page provides details about whether candidates standing in the local body elections will uphold democracy by opposing any moves to appoint iwi representatives to councils, or whether they prepared to undermine democracy by supporting the appointment of iwi representatives with voting rights.

These details are based on candidate feedback on the following three questions – where only two replies are listed, they relate to questions 1 and 2, since most councils do not have unelected representatives:

  1. Would you oppose unelected representatives being appointed onto your Council with voting rights?  YES/NO
  2. If a proposal to appoint unelected representatives with voting rights onto your Council won majority support, would you counter it by proposing a public referendum so that the final decision is made by local ratepayers?  YES/NO
  3. If your Council has already established unelected representatives with voting rights, will you move that the positions be dis-established? YES/NO

The details are listed using the following key:

Tick230616 UPHOLDING DEMOCRACY – opposed council appointments with voting rights

Cross230616 UNDERMINING DEMOCRACY – supported council appointments with voting rights

GreenCross Councils that appointed representatives with speaking but not voting rights

We have also posted up details from the Masterton District Council and the Rotorua Lakes Council, which have both appointed iwi with voting rights to their councils during this three-year term, and the Whangarei District Council where the Mayor used a casting vote to carry the motion to appoint iwi with speaking rights only.

Please note sitting Councillors and Mayors have an * by their name.
