The Maori Council and the Maori Electoral Option

The has announced:

The Māori Council is delivering a public awareness programme for the Māori Electoral Option, through a contract with the Electoral Commission's Enrolment Services, in a number of areas within New Zealand.

As a provider of this programme, the Māori Council is committed to giving Māori the information they need to make their own choice as to which type of electoral roll they wish to be on – the Māori roll or the roll.

The Māori Electoral Option helps determine the number of Māori and General there will be for the next two General Elections.

have to say that I think choosing a body which is currently suing the in to be involved in what is meant to be a neutral enrolment option exercise is very poor judgement. It doesn't lend confidence to the neutrality of our electoral institutions.
