    Campaign for MMP presented its submission last week in Wellington.

    Campaign for MMP is encouraging the public to take part in the review of MMP, to ensure the system is bedded down for several generations.
     
    Spokesperson Sandra Grey said that during the group’s two year campaign to keep MMP, they frequently heard from people who liked MMP but wanted to make some changes to how it worked at the margins.
     
    "New Zealanders voted to keep MMP in the expectation that a review would take place which would fine tune MMP to iron out any wrinkles,” she said.

    MMP supporters say they will honour a promise made during the campaign to help the public take part in the fine tuning of MMP, and are calling for the Electoral Commission to lead a deeper discussion than that announced today.

    “During our campaign, lots of people told us that they wanted MMP, but with some modifications,” Keep MMP spokesperson Sandra Grey said.

    “The last time we had a thorough look at MMP’s workings was in 1986.  25 years later, we need to make sure this review of MMP as effective as possible.”
