1728 NEW ZEALAND GAZETTE, No. 65 14 JUNE 2007

N34

Whanganui

N34 001 n

Objection B R Costley

Objects to the name ‘Whanganui’ for the proposed electorate, as it now includes the entire South Taranaki district.

Suggested solution Name the electorate ‘Waitotara’.

N34 002 b

Objection New Plymouth District Council, Stratford District Council, South Taranaki District Council and Taranaki Regional Council

Objects to the inclusion of parts of the Taranaki District in the proposed Whanganui electorate. The Taranaki District has a strong identity and shared community of interest which it does not share with the Whanganui electorate.

Suggested solution Rather than split the Taranaki District into two electorates, establish a Taranaki electorate with boundaries along the local government boundaries of the South Taranaki, Stratford and New Plymouth districts. To compensate, a new Whanganui-King Country electorate could be established and the remainder of the current Taranaki King-Country electorate included in a Taupo-Waitomo electorate.

N35

East Coast

N35 001 n

Objection B R Costley

Objects to the name ‘East Coast’ for the proposed electorate, as the electorate contains much more than just the eastern coast of the North Island.

Suggested solution Name the electorate ‘Eastland’ or ‘Waiapu’.

N35 002 b, h

Objection P Hickson

Objects to the inclusion of parts of the western Bay of Plenty in the proposed East Coast electorate. Their community of interest lies with the rest of the Bay of Plenty.

Suggested solution Redraw adjacent boundaries to keep the Bay of Plenty together.

N35 003 b

Objection S A Moscrip

Similar to N35/002.

Suggested solution Include Whakatane and Maketu in the Bay of Plenty electorate. If the East Coast electorate requires more population, this could come from the south.

N35 004 b, h

Objection S Russell

Similar to N35/002.

Suggested solution That areas within the Western Bay of Plenty District that are proposed to be included in the East Coast electorate instead be included in the Rotorua electorate.
