New Zealand local government and human rights : ウィキペディア英語版 | New Zealand local government and human rights
Local government bodies in New Zealand have responsibilities under the Local Government Act 2002 (LGA) to perform a wide range of functions, and provide a wide range of services to the communities they represent. There is not an explicit focus on human rights in New Zealand local government, or any direct reference to human rights under the LGA. Local bodies in New Zealand are required to act in a way that is consistent with the rights guaranteed under the New Zealand Bill of Rights Act 1990 (NZBORA).〔(New Zealand Bill of Rights Act, section 3 )〕 Internationally there is growing consideration of how local government does and could promote and protect fundamental rights.〔http://www.ohchr.org/EN/HRBodies/HRC/AdvisoryCommittee/Pages/LocalGovernmentAndHR.aspx〕 ==Local government in New Zealand== The purposes and functions of local government in New Zealand are provided for in a number of statutes. The key statute is the LGA. It states the purpose of local government as being to enable democratic local decision-making and action by, and on behalf of, communities.〔(Local Government Act 2002, section 10(1)(a) )〕 It requires local authorities to act in an open, transparent and democratically accountable manner.〔(Local Government Act 2002, section 14(1)(a)(i) )〕
