Michael Swanson: University of Otago New Zealand Politics PhD candidate on potential for four year terms in Parliament to be put to referendum
A decision around extending political terms from three years to four may be put to voters in the next election.
Prime Minister Christopher Luxon says the Government may put the matter to referendum in 2026.
Luxon expressed confidence there is support for a four-year term across the House.
University of Otago New Zealand Politics PhD candidate Michael Swanson tells Kerre Woodham a four-year term could change voter behaviour from keeping the current government in power to allow them time to implement their policies.
The state of the opposition’s readiness to govern should be constant, so that when new parties are voted in there is no warm-up period whilst in power.
