NZ Government

L.O Understand how the New Zealand government is structured and how people can have a say.

In New Zealand there are different types of government. Legislative, Executive, Judaical. Legislative government - Parliament makes the laws.

Executive - Government: Cabinet - Develops and administers laws.

Has the power to make decisions

Judaical - Courts, judges - has the power to interpret laws (what they mean and how they work).

An Interesting fact:

• In 1893 women were granted the vote after a petition with 32,000 signatures was presented to parliament.

This term we have been learning about government. For this we got to choose a different type of government and I chose to do communism in north Korea. This is what I have done and some of the information I have found out.
