DEMOCRACY ACTION NEWSLETTER – September 2023
One thing we can be sure of about the Labour government is its dogged determination to pursue its “partnership” agenda — also known as “co-governance”. Right up to the end of this term the government continues to implement undemocratic arrangements, such as the recently released Hauraki Gulf Fisheries Plan. Under this Plan, Crown agencies are to manage the Hauraki Gulf fisheries in partnership with ‘tangata whenua.’ To read more on this issue, see the commentary below - ‘HAURAKI GULF FISHERIES UNDER NEW MANAGEMENT’
Let’s make no bones about it, NZ’s democracy is teetering on the brink of an abyss. Given the rapid implementation of the current government’s radical co-governance agenda, three more years will suffice to fully execute the vision outlined in He Puapua – the blueprint to “break” New Zealand’s constitutional arrangements and establish a system of two race-based peoples in an unequal partnership.
To raise public awareness of the alarming challenges to our democracy, we recently launched a short video, ‘IF I WANTED NEW ZEALAND TO FAIL’. This video highlights just some of the issues we are facing. We suggest sharing this among your friends, family, and colleagues. > www.youtube.com/watch?reload=9&v=Hsez_TGeF5M
