✨ Electoral Boundary Objections



14 JUNE 2007

NEW ZEALAND GAZETTE, No. 65

N37

Tukituki

N37 001 b, n

Objection J Haydon-Carr, Central Region Representative – Young Labour Executive

Supports the proposed boundary for the Tukituki electorate. While sympathetic to the concerns of areas such as Waipukurau, believes that the Wairarapa electorate will effectively represent their interests.

Also supports the name ‘Tukituki’ for the proposed electorate as it reflects the shared identity of communities within the electorate.

N37 002 b, n

Objection Hon Rick Barker, MP

Supports the proposed boundary for the Tukituki electorate.

Regrets the division of the Central Hawke’s Bay District across two electorates, but notes that this area and Wairarapa have shared an electorate previously.

Objects to the name ‘Tukituki’ for the proposed electorate. The Tukituki River is not recognised as part of the regional identity.

Suggested solution Name the electorate ‘Hastings’, as it was previously.

N38

Wairarapa

N38 001 b

Objection N T Ashby

Objects to the inclusion of Waipukurau in the proposed Wairarapa electorate. This separates Waipukurau from Waipawa with which it shares a community of interest.

Suggested solution Waipukurau and Waipawa are both placed in the same electorate. While ideally Waipukurau would return to the Tukituki electorate, population quotas may require Waipawa to move to the Wairarapa electorate.

N38 002 n

Objection J M Harris

Objects to the name ‘Wairarapa’ for the proposed electorate as it is not representative of those areas now included in the north of the electorate.

Suggested solution Name the electorate ‘Wairarapa-Bush’ after the Seventy-Mile Bush that ran from Takapau to Kopuaranga.

N38 003 b

Objection J D Sanderson

Objects to the inclusion of parts of the Central Hawke’s Bay in the proposed Wairarapa electorate. This region shares a strong community of interest and should not be split across two electorates.

Suggested solution Move the boundary of the Tukituki electorate down to south of Takapau.

N38 004 b, h

Objection Central Hawke’s Bay District Council

Similar to N38/001 and N38/003.

Suggested solution Include all of the Central Hawke’s Bay in one electorate.
