β¨ Electoral Boundary Objections
46 West Coast-Tasman
Objection 117 Tasman District Council
Objects to the proposed boundaries for the West Coast/Tasman electorate on the grounds that there is very little, if any, community of interest between Motueka/Golden Bay and Westland. There are presently 3 major communication channels across the Southern Alps via the Lewis Pass, Haast Pass and Arthurs Pass and the air link is between Hokitika and Christchurch. There would also be difficulties in effective representation for the elected MP.
Suggested solution Horizontal slices of the South Island would on balance form better and more manageable electorates than the vertical slice proposed.
Objection 219 M G & A J Strong
Objects to the inclusion of the Upper Moutere area in the proposed West Coast-Tasman electorate. As a horticultural region the area should be included with Marlborough as the region has nothing in common with the West Coast.
Objection 332 D Freilich
Similar to Objection 117.
Objection 272 C D Strong
Similar to Objection 117.
Objection 273 M D Strong
Similar to Objection 117.
Objection 385 N S Thawley

Objection 384 C Hynd

Objection 271 L R Mathison
Similar to Objection 384.
