Some of the councillors and the mayor are not standing for re-election later this year. This should be campaigned on. The case should be made widely to the people of Rotorua; everybody should have a say. The council should actually say: "This is of such significance that we are having to ask Parliament to change the law that applies to the whole of the country. We're asking them to change it just for Rotorua. There should be a referendum on this locally, at the very least. It should be campaigned on, and then the new council should be the ones that make this decision." There are many people in Rotorua that feel that they haven't been listened to, people that feel that they have been left out of this debate, that they actually didn't get their say. We won't be supporting this because it does not deliver elections that are fair, democratic, or proportional. Every part of the country should actually elect in the same way, and we will be voting against this.
