Although we are an apolitical movement, with the upcoming September 20th elections we have written to NZ political party leaders and asked them to inform us of their parties position on reinstating 10-year NZ Passports.
Please note that this is general information only, it is certainly not our intent to tell you who to vote for - we will leave that important decision to you.
Today we share the Green parties position on reinstating 10-year passports to NZ citizens:
"Kia ora Kyle,
Thank you for your request on the Green Party’s position on ten year passports. Apologies for the delay in responding.
The Green Party is in favour of reinstating ten-year passports for New Zealanders aged over 16 years. Green MP Mojo Mathers participated in the Government Administration select committee’s consideration of your petition and agreed with the recommendation of the committee for the Government to review the validity period of passports.
Kind regards,
Holly
Holly Donald | Advisor | Green Party of Aotearoa New Zealand"
Expatriate New Zealand citizens who have visited New Zealand in the past 3 years are also eligible to vote, online, please follow the instructions at the bottom of the page here: http://www.nzten.com/
