Background

[edit]

Reforms

[edit]
Main article: 1989 New Zealand local government reforms

The Labour Party had reform of local government as one of its policies for the 1984 election, but did not give much detail; the proposals were developed during the first term of the Fourth Labour Government after the party won the election.[2] Michael Bassett was Minister of Local Government and appointed a Local Government Commission,[2] which was chaired by Brian Elwood from 1 April 1985 to 1 November 1992.[3][4] The government gave the commission a guarantee that their findings would be treated as binding.[4] The resulting local government reform was undertaken along the lines of marketisation, and was done in conjunction with neoliberal economic reforms known as Rogernomics.[2] Some 850 entities were amalgamated into 86 local authorities on regional and territorial levels.[2] Of the 850 entities, 249 were municipalities,[5] and the remainder harbour boards, catchment boards, and drainage boards. The new authorities came into being on 1 November 1989, with the local politicians having been elected on 14 October.[6] Brian Rudman, a journalist and editorial writer for The New Zealand Herald, called the reforms "revolutionary".[4]
