An Agreement must be signed between at least two parties. So who should sign
for Government and who should sign for the Sector?
This Statement of Government Intentions was signed by the New Zealand Prime
Minister (the Rt Hon Helen Clark) and the Minister Responsible for the
Community and Voluntary Sector (Hon Steve Maharey) in December 2001.
Was all government agencies responsible for adhering to the 'Statement of
Governmetn Intentions'?
As this will be a one : many relationship, I would encourage all parties to
sign, that is, bring the agreement to each town and city and place and sign up
all individual community groups a la Te Tiriti.
