Hon NANAIA MAHUTA: The ballot-box decision that electors make every three years, which is to choose their leaders of council, to choose their councillors, is overturned by a 5 percent discriminatory provision. Even if those councillors around the table who have been elected to represent their region want Māori wards, it can be overturned by a 5 percent poll, and that's discriminatory. We need to even up the playing field.
