Rod Donald 1957-2005

Rod Donald 1957-2005

Rod Donald MP, who died prematurely on 7 November, was an early supporter of citizenship education. He was a member of the MPs Editorial Committee guiding the tone of the Decisionmaker Guide to Parliament and Government, encouraging it since Parliamentary Service asked me to develop this service in 1990.

He advocated long term, stable arrangements for the provision of citizenship education.

He played a crucial role in advocating for the establishment of the proportional representation system - MMP - shaping the work of New Zealand's Parliament.

I add my tributes to him. He will be missed.
