Silent by design — everything is on screen.
When a bill is rushed through under urgency and skips the select committee, the public never gets to make a submission — no hearing, no chance to be heard. A law you never had a say on still governs you.
After a low point in the mid-2010s, urgency has climbed every term — under Labour, then further under the current National-led government, now at a record 39%. Every government reaches for it; the share has never been higher. Our tally of all bills before each Parliament whose official record shows a stage taken under urgency; 2023–now is still in progress.
If the people can't have their say, is that a 'democracy' you really want to live in?
How we count it: a bill is "taken under urgency" if Parliament's official bill record marks at least one of its stages (a reading, committee, etc.) as done under urgency. The urgency figures above are our own tally of every bill before each Parliament since 2008 (2,147 bills; as at June 2026, the current term still in progress). The no-select-committee figures are from Newsroom. Further reading: NZ Law Society — Review of Standing Orders · RNZ.

*Te Pāti Māori won 3.08% of the party vote — below the 5% list threshold — but holds 6 seats by winning Māori electorate seats (creating a two-seat overhang in Parliament). It’s shown here because the tool compares your votes against it too.
It’s easy to say what you’ll do. What you do in the chamber is on the record — every bill, every reading, every party’s vote. This tool lets you vote on the same bills, blind to who voted how, then reveals which party actually lines up with you.
And it goes issue by issue: you might vote like one party on the economy and another on the environment.
These are campaign promises — claims, not a scorecard. We don’t tell you who’s right. We show how each party actually voted, and let you decide.
