The 3rd New Zealand Parliament was a term of the Parliament of New Zealand. Elections for this term were held between 12 December 1860 and 28 March 1861 in 43 electorates to elect 53 MPs. Two electorates were added to this during this term, Gold Fields District (overlaid over existing Otago electorates) and a new Dunedin electorate created by splitting the existing City of Dunedin into Dunedin and Suburbs North and Dunedin and Suburbs South, increasing the number of MPs to 57. During the term of this Parliament, six Ministries were in power.

Historical context

The 3rd Parliament opened on 30 May 1861,[1] following New Zealand's 1860–61 election. It was the second Parliament under which New Zealand had responsible government, meaning that unlike the 1st Parliament, the Cabinet was chosen (although not officially appointed) by Parliament rather than by the Governor.

Political parties had not been established yet; this only happened after the 1890 election. Anyone attempting to form an administration thus had to win support directly from individual MPs. This made first forming, and then retaining a government difficult and challenging.[2]

The 3rd Parliament sat during the time of the New Zealand land wars. Even before the first session started, William Cutfield King (representing the Grey and Bell electorate) was killed in the First Taranaki War.[3] Marmaduke Nixon (Franklin electorate) was killed in action in 1864 whilst leading an assault on a Māori village during the Invasion of Waikato.[4]

Ministries

Since 1856, the first Stafford Ministry, led by Edward Stafford, was in place. This was the third administration under responsible government, and it was dissolved on 12 July 1861. Stafford was the third Premier of New Zealand.[2] William Fox then formed the second Fox Ministry, which was in place from 12 July 1861 to 6 August 1862. Fox had previously been the Premier under the second administration.[2] Alfred Domett, the fourth Premier, led the fifth administration, the Domett Ministry. This was in place from 6 August 1862 until 30 October 1863.[2]

The Whitaker–Fox Ministry was the next administration, led by Frederick Whitaker as the 5th Premier. This administration was in place from 30 October 1863 to 24 November 1864.[2] This was followed by the Weld Ministry under Frederick Weld as the 6th Premier. This was in place from 24 November 1864 to 16 October 1865.[2] A few months before the 1866 general elections, Stafford once again became Premier on 16 October 1865, leading the second Stafford Ministry. This lasted well into the term of the 4th Parliament on 28 June 1869.[2]

Sessions

Parliament sat for five sessions:[5]

First 3 Jun 1861 7 Sep 1861
Second 7 Jul 1862 15 Sep 1862
Third 19 Oct 1863 14 Dec 1863
Fourth 24 Jul 1864 13 Dec 1864
Fifth 26 Jul 1865 30 Oct 1865

The 1st session started on 30 May 1861.[1] The 5th session started on 26 July 1865[6] and Parliament was prorogued on 30 October.[7]

Electoral boundaries for the 3rd Parliament

43 electorates were used for the 1860–61 elections. This was a significant increase from the previous 28 electorates, and resulted from the passage of the Representation Act 1860.[8]

Initial composition of the 3rd Parliament

53 seats were created across the 43 electorates. The City of Wellington electorate was the only three-member electorate, and eight electorates were represented by two members. The remaining 34 electorates were represented by a single member.[8]

Dunedin and Suburbs South

Dunedin and Suburbs North

Dunedin and Suburbs North was established in 1863 as a two-member electorate. It was represented by John Larkins Cheese Richardson (from 20 Apr 1863) and Julius Vogel (from 29 Sep 1863) until the end of the term.

Goldfields

The Goldfields electorate was established in 1862, during the term of the 3rd Parliament. This was a reaction to the large influx of people to Otago during the Otago Gold Rush, and because the franchise had been extended to males aged 21 years and over who had held a miner’s right continuously for at least three (or six) months. No electoral rolls were established for these districts, and to vote a miner just presented his miner’s licence to the election official. Outside Otago where no special Goldfields electorate existed, miners could register as electors in the ordinary electoral district where they lived.

William Baldwin and George Brodie were elected in the 1863 Goldfields by-election. Baldwin resigned on 27 April 1865.[67] Charles Edward Haughton won the resulting 1865 by-election held on 29 May contested by three candidates.[68]
