Advice on voting and candidates for the 2016 local
government elections
File No.: CP2015/05245
Purpose
1. To seek input and advice from the Pacific Peoples Advisory Panel on voting and candidates for the 2016 local government elections.
Executive Summary
2. The next local government elections will be conducted by postal vote, concluding at 12 noon on Saturday 8 October 2016.
3. Auckland Council has begun planning for these elections and is seeking advice from the council’s advisory panels. Council’s key objectives for the next elections are to deliver:
· an excellent experience for candidates and voters, resulting in a pool of candidates that reflects Auckland’s diversity, and a voter turnout of at least 40%;
· a candidate-to-member ratio of 3;
· user-centric, innovative and transparent local body elections.
4. We seek your input and advice on two key questions:
a. What can we do to encourage pacific people to consider standing as candidates?
b. What can we do to encourage pacific people to register and to vote?
5. Generally speaking, the turnout in local government elections in New Zealand is on the decline. Younger people and people from pacific communities have a lower incidence of voting than other groups. By way of background, please find attached the Justice and Electoral Select Committee Inquiry into the 2013 Local Government Elections (Attachment A); and the Results from the General Social Survey 2013 (Attachment B).
6. The Manager, Democracy Services and Manager, Elections Planning will attend the Panel meeting to hear your advice on the above questions and any other input panel members may wish to provide, and can also answer questions.
That the Pacific Peoples Advisory Panel: a) provide advice on ways to engage pacific people to stand as candidates and to vote.

Purpose
1. To provide an update on activities undertaken by members.
Executive Summary
2. Panel member Samuelu Sefuiva accepted an invitation to attend a strategic arts education and economic development seminar, March 10, 2015, organised by Auckland Theatre Company and AUT University in the context of their strategic partnership focused on the ASB Waterfront Theatre and their shared goal to contribute to the role the arts can play in realising Auckland’s potential.
The seminar was to hear a talk by Alex Sarian, Director of Business Development and Operations for the education division of the Lincoln Center for the Performing Arts (New York).
Of particular interest was the role the arts and creative sector as an economic driver particularly through arts education and diverse communities. Alex Sarian demonstrated the significant impact on New York City’s cultural, identity, education and economic landscape by the City’s diverse communities and work of the Lincoln Centre for Performing Arts.
It is of particular relevance to Pacific peoples as we have strong and unique collateral in the arts and creative sector with opportunities for building Auckland’s social capital. The presentation is attached for information.
3. Panel Chair Aiolupotea-Aiono and members Sefuiva and Pamatatau accompanied the Mayor Len Brown and Local Board elected members, newly appointed USA Ambassador Gilbert and officials, and ATEED staff as part of the Mayoral Walkabout at the re-located site Hayman Park Manukau venue for the 2015 Pasifika Festival.
Recommendation/s That the Pacific Peoples Advisory Panel: a) member Sam Sefuiva for his member’s report.
