OUR HERO'S - Political Decision - Making

  This week we have been learning about political decision making in our class. It is about the treaty of waitangi signing.What are the similaritys between the proscess we used to create our class treaty and the steps that involved in passing new laws?

1. In our class we went into groups and spread the workload, this is the same in parliament.

2.Other people checked our work and made new changes to our work. This is like a second reading of a Bill.

3.We then put our treaty into a formal format. Parliamentary Services does this.

4.We checked it out as a whole class. This is like the final reading in parliment.

5.We all signed the treaty. This is the same as Royal Assent (singed by the Governor - general).

When are our general elections? New Zealand general elections generally occur every three years. Unlike some other countries, New Zealand has no fixed election-date for general elections, but rather the prime minister determines the timing of general elections by advising the governor-general when to issue the writs for a general election.

1. Step 1: The bill is drafted
2. Step 2: The bill is introduced
3. Step 3: The bill goes to committee
4. Step 4: Subcommittee review of the bill
5. Step 5: Committee mark up of the bill
6. Step 6: Voting by the full chamber on the bill
7. Step 7: Referral of the bill to the other chamber
8. Step 8: The bill goes to the president or the priminister

How do the steps we used to create our Class Treaty compare with the steps in passing a new law?

Because the treaty is getting done and then the bill is shown to the class just like the treaty that we done in our class.

 Email - To Your Hero

This post is about an email to our New Zealand priminister and what she has done for New Zealand throughout the years of her being a priminister...

Hi, Jacinda Ardern. I consider you a hero because you helped out with the mosque shootings by banning automatic guns and by getting justice from the person that caused all that havok. And I appreciate you putting the whole of New Zealand in lockdown level 4, to keep us safe from Covid - 19. 

I would like to ask you a few questions…

1. When did you know to put the whole of New Zealand into lockdown level 4 to keep us safe from Covid - 19?

2. How did you feel about the mosque shootings and what did you feel against the people who died and the person who caused havoc among the mosque?

3. How did you feel when you got elected to be the prime minister of New Zealand?

Conclusion: In conclusion I really think you are one of the best prime ministers that New Zealand has ever had.You make really good choices about problems amongst New Zealand. I appreciate what you have done for the country of New Zealand.
