5 Saving
Until the members elected at the triennial elections of members of DHBs under the Local Electoral Act 2001 next held after the commencement of this order take office, nothing in this order affects the continuing representation of a constituency created by clause 4 of the constituencies order by a member of a DHB holding office—
(a)
as an elected member; or
(b)
by virtue of having been appointed (before or after the commencement of this order) under subsection (2) or subsection (3) of section 29 of the New Zealand Public Health and Disability Act 2000.
Diane Morcom,
Clerk of the Executive Council.
Explanatory note
This note is not part of the order, but is intended to indicate its general effect.
This order, which comes into force 28 days after notification in the Gazette, cancels the division of the geographical areas of District Health Boards into constituencies for the purpose of the election of members.
The effect is that members elected in the triennial elections that are to be held in 2004 under the single transferable vote system will be elected “at large”
(that is to say, by all the electors of the geographical area of the Board concerned) rather than by the electors of 1 constituency only.
Date of notification in Gazette: 25 March 2004.
