Under section 7 of the Citizens Initiated Referenda Act 1993, I give notice that I have received from Helen Houghton a proposal to promote an indicative referendum petition.

The wording of the question proposed to be put to voters in an indicative referendum is:

“Should New Zealand ban harmful unscientific gender theory education in all schools?”

Comment is invited on this wording.

Anyone wishing to comment must send three written copies to:

The Clerk of the House of Representatives, Parliament House, Parliament Buildings, Wellington

by 5pm on Thursday 8 September 2022.

Dated at Wellington this 20th day of July 2022.

DAVID WILSON, Clerk of the House of Representatives.
