There have been growing concerns that good candidates who publicise their home addresses could face physical harm or danger or risk, particularly women and minorities. So this means that we won't have a lot of good people from our diverse minorities standing for local government office. We know that's not going to be good for wherever our country is heading, because we're increasingly becoming a multicultural nation and that needs to be elected in the people standing for office. This change will provide for a richer and more inclusive Aotearoa New Zealand that we all just love to see.
