This note is not part of the regulations, but is intended to indicate their general effect.
These regulations, which come into force on the 28th day after the date of their notification in the Gazette, define iwi organisation and other Maori organisation for the purposes of sections 111A to 111F of the Electoral Act 1993. An iwi organisation or other Maori organisation listed in the Schedule may be supplied certain information from the register of iwi affiliations (established under sections 111A to 111F of the Electoral Act 1993) for the purposes of the organisation. The regulations replace regulations made in 2005.
