Description: <div style="text-align:Left;"><p style="margin-top:1.25rem; margin-bottom:1.25rem; box-sizing:border-box; font-size:1rem; color:rgb(53, 53, 53); font-family:Roboto, sans-serif;">Gisborne District Council are reviewing how Gisborne District Council represents our communities. All councils are required to review their representation every 6 years.</p><p style="margin-top:1.25rem; margin-bottom:1.25rem; box-sizing:border-box; font-size:1rem; color:rgb(53, 53, 53); font-family:Roboto, sans-serif;">In November 2020, Council voted to include Māori wards and that decision brought forward the 6-yearly review of representation for the local body elections in 2022 and 2025.</p><p style="margin-top:0px; margin-bottom:1.25rem; box-sizing:border-box; font-size:1rem; padding-top:0px; color:rgb(53, 53, 53); font-family:Roboto, sans-serif;">The representation review looks at the total number of councillors there should be for a region and the way they're elected. The position of mayor is not part of the review. The review involves deciding:</p><ul><li><span style="font-size:1rem; color:rgb(53, 53, 53); font-family:Roboto, sans-serif;">the number of councillor to be elected for both the general and Māori wards</span></li><li><span style="font-size:1rem; color:rgb(53, 53, 53); font-family:Roboto, sans-serif;">whether they're elected from wards or ‘at large’ across the whole region, or a mix of both</span></li><li><span style="font-size:1rem; color:rgb(53, 53, 53); font-family:Roboto, sans-serif;">whether there should be community boards, and if so how many, their names and boundaries and the number of members for each board.</span></li></ul><p style="margin-top:1.25rem; margin-bottom:1.25rem; box-sizing:border-box; font-size:1rem; color:rgb(53, 53, 53); font-family:Roboto, sans-serif;">Council is required to consider 3 key factors to ensure effective representation of communities of interest. This is required for both the Māori and General electoral populations:</p><ul><li><span style="font-size:1rem; color:rgb(53, 53, 53); font-family:Roboto, sans-serif;">Communities of interest.</span></li><li><span style="font-size:1rem; color:rgb(53, 53, 53); font-family:Roboto, sans-serif;">Effective representation of communities of interest.</span></li><li><span style="font-size:1rem; color:rgb(53, 53, 53); font-family:Roboto, sans-serif;">Fair representation of electors.</span></li></ul><p style="margin-top:0px; margin-bottom:1.25rem; box-sizing:border-box; font-size:16px; color:rgb(53, 53, 53); font-family:Roboto, sans-serif;">On 23 November 2020, Council established Māori wards for the next 2 local body elections (2022 and 2025), alongside General wards, under the Local Electoral Act. Māori wards are the local government equivalent of the Māori parliamentary electorates.</p><p style="margin-top:1.25rem; margin-bottom:1.25rem; box-sizing:border-box; font-size:16px; color:rgb(53, 53, 53); font-family:Roboto, sans-serif;">A candidate standing for a Māori ward does not need to be enrolled on the Māori electoral roll to stand.</p><p style="margin-top:1.25rem; margin-bottom:1.25rem; box-sizing:border-box; font-size:16px; color:rgb(53, 53, 53); font-family:Roboto, sans-serif;">This is also the same for the General ward, where a candidate does not need to be enrolled on the General electoral roll to stand in that ward.</p><p style="margin-top:1.25rem; margin-bottom:0px; box-sizing:border-box; font-size:16px; color:rgb(53, 53, 53); font-family:Roboto, sans-serif;">Candidates for both the General and Māori wards must be nominated by 2 electors enrolled in the ward they are seeking for both Māori and General wards.</p><p></p></div>
