✨ Electoral Boundary Objections




Miramar and Seatoun, all of which are in Rongotai. In order to balance numbers transfer to Wellington from Rongotai the area at the bottom (northern side) of the Brooklyn Hill. This area is bounded by Taranaki Street, Webb Street, Brooklyn Road, Nairn Street and Hankey Street. This area has its community of interest in the Te Aro area which is in the Wellington electorate.

Objection 832 E F Prendeville

Suggested solution To include the Chatham Islands in the Napier electorate as their shipping, business and health links are with Napier. The rural and fishing community of the Chatham Islands has no community of interest with an urban electorate which does not have any role to play in the support of primary industry.

Objection 655 The New Zealand Labour Party

Objects to the proposed boundaries of the Rongotai, Wellington, Onslow and Pencarrow electorates. See general reasons Objection 648 (43) Wellington.

Suggested solution The areas of Oriental Bay and Roseneath in the proposed Wellington electorate be transferred to the Rongotai electorate.

45 Nelson

Objection 33 G Ormsby & L Campbell

Objects to the proposed name of Nelson on the grounds set out in Objection 07 (01) Northland.

Suggested solution To call the electorate Whakatu because of its historical association with the area and its links with the tangata whenua of the electorate

Objection 834 New Zealand National Party, Tasman Electorate

See Objection 838 (46) West Coast-Tasman for general reasons and solution.

Objection 835 G M Truman

Objects to the proposed boundaries of the Nelson electorate.

Suggested solution The southern boundary should be shifted to include all of the Waimea Plains on the grounds that this area has more of a community of interest with Nelson than with West Coast-Tasman. If not achievable then at least the population south of Wakefield should be transferred to Nelson on community of interest grounds.
