They’re back!
Vernon Small at Stuff reports:
The Electoral Commission has re-registered UnitedFuture, effective from Thursday, but leader Peter Dunne is planning to introduce a Bill to change what he calls “a cumbersome process” he had to go through.
He said he was pleased with the decision and would now seek to have Speaker David Carter restore it as a recognised Parliamentary party – a move that would bring with it extra funding of more than $100,000.
I expect United Future will also be re-recognised as a parliamentary party.
The bigger issue for United Future if whether Peter decides to contest Ohariu in 2014.
