As of January 2010, this website is no longer being kept uptodate. It contains NZ Parliament debates from November 2005 to December 2009. We may resurrect the site in 2011 for the General Election.

TheyWorkForYou.co.nz is volunteer run, and has been in operation since November 2006. We developed it entirely with free and open source software, as a hint to the public sector that they should be adopting and promoting free and open source software themselves (despite what foreign corporations masquerading as a NZ ICT industry may say to the contrary).

Wills Bill

This Bill aims to restate the existing law governing wills in a single statute in plain, modern language that is clearer and more accessible, and implement certain reforms to enhance and modernise the substantive law and remove certain anomalies.
