Their eligible partner may be either self-employed or an employee."

In another amendment to the Act, both employees and the self-employed will be eligible for a subsequent period of paid parental leave if their expected date of delivery or adoption is at least six months after they return to work from previous leave, down from 12 months at present.

Speaking at the centenary celebrations for the Wellington and Hutt YWCA, Lianne Dalziel said the research showed wages for qualified, experienced staff were much higher in male-dominated trade-related occupations than in female-dominated occupations.
The Ministry of Women's Affairs commissioned the research to provide a preliminary indication on wages and costs of education or training in a range of occupations, including hairdressing, plumbing and administration.
Lianne Dalziel said the research tended to overstate the rates paid in the female-dominated occupations as experienced hairdressers and travel agents were more likely to have a commission component which increased considerably the top of the range.

Commerce Minister Lianne Dalziel announced new government procurement rules, which come into effect today, designed to ensure the Labour-led government gets value for money when purchasing goods and services.
The rules support the principles of value for money, and open and effective competition (including full and fair opportunity for domestic suppliers), which are the basis of New Zealand's existing government procurement policy.
"While these rules introduce new procedural requirements, and limit the current freedom of departments to choose the most appropriate procurement method, they are not excessively prescriptive, and retain a degree of flexibility," said Lianne Dalziel.
