The current flag was designed and adopted for restricted use in 1869 and became the national flag in 1902. It is the British Blue Ensign, incorporating a stylised representation of the Southern Cross showing the four brightest stars in the constellation. Each star varies slightly in size.

add. Currently in the country, there is a growing movement seeking to change the flag to a more distinctive one. Perhaps along the lines of the easily-recognizable Canadian one. Candidates suggested include the Koru, Kiwi, Silver fern, and the current Maori Flag.
