Applications to register a political party and a party logo
The Electoral Commission is considering applications made under Part 4 of the Electoral Act 1993 to register the following political party and political party logo:
Political party name (and abbreviation): New World Order (N W O)
Applicant: Nathan Couper, party secretary, 46 Wallis St, Raglan
Political party logo: The Kiwi Party
Registration of a party is needed for it to contest the party vote at general elections. Registration of a logo is needed for it to appear on a ballot paper. Registration may be refused if: a name or logo is indecent, offensive, misleading, confusing, refers to a title or an honour, infringes an intellectual property right (in the case of a logo), or an application is made incorrectly.
Public comment is invited to PO Box 3050, Wellington 6140, fax 04-474 0674, email info@elections.govt.nz to arrive by 5pm, Thu 17 Apr 08.
