Constitutional referendums

There is no requirement for a referendum to enact constitutional change in New Zealand. The most recent such referendum was to decide the nature of electoral reform in New Zealand. Many groups advocate constitutional reform by referenda; for example, the Republican Movement supports a referendum on whether New Zealand should become a republic. Recently the government replaced the Privy Council as New Zealand's highest court of appeal with the new Supreme Court of New Zealand despite calls from New Zealand First, National and ACT for a referendum to be called on the issue.

Liquor licensing referendums

In New Zealand, alcohol licensing has historically been decided by referendum. A referendum was held alongside each main parliamentary election (except 1931 and 1951), following the passage of the Alcoholic Liquors Sale Control Act 1893. This slowly ended after the introduction of the Sale of Liquor Act 1989 which had no provisions for referenda. Local restoration polls were still held in areas that were still 'dry', but the last three, Mount Eden, Mount Roskill and Tawa, all became 'wet' in 1999.

Other referendums

The government may call referendums on any issues on which it wishes. These will usually be on issues on which the government is split.

Citizens' Initiated Referenda

The Citizens' Initiated Referenda Act 1993 allows for citizens to propose a referendum. These are non-binding referenda on any issue in which proponents have submitted a petition to Parliament signed by 10% of all registered electors within 12 months. It costs NZ$500 to file a petition asking for a referendum with the Clerk of the House of Representatives. The Clerk formally determines the wording of the question. The poll must be held within 12 months unless 75% of MPs vote to delay the poll for one year. There is also a $50,000 spending limit on promoting the petition. 1993 (MCMXCIII) was a common year starting on Friday of the Gregorian calendar and marked the Beginning of the International Decade to Combat Racism and Racial Discrimination (1993-2003). ...

Firefighters

The first referendum was held in 1995. The question "Should the number of professional fire-fighters employed full-time in the New Zealand Fire Service be reduced below the number employed in 1 January 1995?" is unique in that it aimed to elicit a "no" response. Turnout was low and the measure passed easily. 1995 (MCMXCV) was a common year starting on Sunday of the Gregorian calendar. ... Ensign of the N.Z.

1999 election

At the 1999 election two referenda were put before voters. One was on whether the number of Members of Parliament should be reduced from 120 to 99. Electors overwhelmingly voted in favour of the proposal, with 81.47% voting for this proposal. However, there were no moves to amend the Electoral Act 1993 in line with this result until 2006 when a bill was introduced by New Zealand First MP Barbara Stewart to reduce the size of Parliament to 100. The bill passed its first reading by 61 votes to 60. It seems unlikely to pass into law as many parties stated they were supporting it only to Select Committee stage. The 1999 New Zealand general election was a nationwide vote to determine the shape of the 46th session of the New Zealand Parliament. ... 2006 (MMVI) is a common year starting on Sunday of the Gregorian calendar. ...

The other referendum held in 1999 asked "Should there be a reform of our Justice system placing greater emphasis on the needs of victims, providing restitution and compensation for them and imposing minimum sentences and hard labour for all serious violent offences?". This measure passed by 91.78%.

Should referenda be binding?

The perceived lack of implementation of successful referenda has led to calls for such referenda to be made binding on the government of the day, similar to the direct democracy seen in Switzerland.
