✨ Electoral Boundary Objections

11 SEPTEMBER NEW ZEALAND GAZETTE

090 Dunedin West

Objections 0802 and 0803 The New Zealand Labour Party

Objects to the proposed boundaries between Clutha/Dunedin West and Dunedin North/Dunedin West Electorates on the grounds that technical adjustments would allow the balance of Taieri Ward to be included in Dunedin West Electorate.

092 Clutha

Objection 0084 M J and A McPhee

Object to the inclusion of Owaka and the Catlins in the Awarua Electorate on the grounds that the area has greater community of interest and facilities of communication with the province of Otago and Clutha Electorates to the north, and is separated from Southland province and Awarua Electorate by rugged bush covered country. Seek the inclusion of Owaka and the Catlins in Clutha Electorate and propose that instead peripheral streets from Invercargill Electorate are added to Awarua Electorate to bring the electoral population within the quota allowance.

Objection 0826 Federated Farmers Owaka Branch and nine other organisations.

Object to the inclusion of the Catlins Ward in the Awarua Electorate on the grounds that the criteria in the Act have not been addressed. Seek to retain the 1987 boundaries.

Objection 0914 New Zealand National Party Balclutha Branch.

Similar to Objection 0826.

Objection 0933 M Blair

Similar to objection 0826 and also suggests the population quota required for Clutha could be taken from the Tairei/Mosgiel area.

Objection 0944 Clutha District Council.

Objection 0975 T G and D P McNab

Similar to Objection 0826.

093 Southland

Objection 0042 N English

Objects to the change of name of the electorate from Wallace to Southland on the grounds that Wallace has long been the name of the electorate, that the name has historical significance and that there is likely to be confusion with the province of Southland which includes the electorates of Awarua and Invercargill. Seeks a return to the electorate name of Wallace.

096 Northern Maori

Objection 0814 The New Zealand Labour Party

Objects to the proposed electoral boundaries of the Northern Maori Electorate and suggests that the proposed boundary in the Henwood Road and Allen Street area be realigned for technical reasons as it provides imprecise delineation and no road continuity.
