SUBMISSIONS FROM THE PUBLIC
Members of the public sent to the Assembly a total of
1,603 public submissions during the 13 months ended 27
September 2004. And you can access them all lower down on this
page.
Incidentally, the numbers on the submissions appear to show that
there are 1,669 of them. After allowing for blanks, duplications
and those submissions that were later withdrawn by the people who
sent them, the real total is 1,603. Unfortunately, we cannot
renumber the submissions to reflect that.
If a posted submission is dated after 27 September, that date
refers to the date the submission was processed and posted to the
website, not the date it was received.

the public, here are:

I am writing to urge the Assembly to recommend in favour of the MMP
electoral model. It offers the best balance of regional
representation and true proportionality and is simple enough to be
understood by voters. [1 page]

The public should be able to get to know candidates on line in
an open forum. Public facilities can be used for those not able to
get on line to use the internet. The voting method can be worked
using whatever is fair. [1 page]
