Electoral Finance Act Repeal may be unanimous

The Herald reports that the repeal of the Electoral Finance Act may be unanimous. Only the Greens have to decide on whether they will support it.

It would be most appropriate for it to be repealed by 122 votes to zero. A symbolic burial.

Will the Police manage to make decisions on outstanding cases before the law is repealed?

The introduction of the repeal bill is set to be tomorrow. And it should be gone some stage during next week.

It has been suggested that there should be some drinks organised to celebrate the repeal. That is a fine idea, and we may try and organise something in Wellington and Auckland around the time of the third and final reading of the repeal bill.
