How are Maoris integrated into the New Zealand Government?
New Zealand has two separate electoral rolls: the General Roll and the Maori Roll. In New Zealand every citizen over the age of 18 is legally required to be registered on an electoral roll. The general Roll is open to all New Zealanders and the Maori Roll is open to Maori only. Maori can choose either the Maori or General Roll and the numbers on the Maori Roll determine the number of Maori electorates that the country is divided into. Currently there are seven Maori electorates so there is a guarantee that there will be at least seven Maori representatives in the New Zealand Parliament. Maori candidates are free to stand in either general or Maori electorates but only Maori can stand in Maori electorates.
