Applications to register political party logos
The Electoral Commission is considering the following applications made under Part 4 of the Electoral Act 1993 to register a political party logo.
New Zealand Sovereignty Party has applied to register the following logo:
Applicant: Tony Corbett, Party Secretary, New Zealand Sovereignty Party
Aotearoa Legalise Cannabis Party has applied to register the following substitute logo:
Applicant: Irinka Britnell, Party Secretary, Aotearoa Legalise Cannabis Party
Registration of a logo is needed for it to appear on a ballot paper. Registration may be refused if the logo is indecent, offensive, misleading, confusing, refers to a title or an honour, infringes an intellectual property right or breaches any law, or an application is made incorrectly.
Anyone who wishes to comment on the application may do so in writing to the Electoral Commission by:
- post to PO Box 3220, Wellington 6140,
- fax to (04) 495 0031,
