Sixth National Government of New Zealand

The Sixth National Government is a coalition government comprising the National Party, ACT Party and New Zealand First that has governed New Zealand since November 2023. The government is headed by Christopher Luxon, the National Party leader and prime minister, along with coalition party leaders David Seymour and Winston Peters.

Following the 2023 general election on 14 October 2023, coalition negotiations between the three parties ended on 24 November, and ministers of the new government were sworn in by the Governor-General on 27 November.

The coalition government has agreed to a select committee with the possibility of amending the Treaty of Waitangi legislation, require councils with Māori wards to hold local referendums on their status or abolish them, and prioritise English over the Māori language in Government departments. National and New Zealand First did not support the Treaty Principles Bill beyond its first reading. On broader issues, the government's plan includes restoring interest deductibility for rental properties, changes in housing policies, infrastructure investment, conservative law and justice reforms, and tax cuts. Social policies include the removal of access to puberty blockers for transgender children, changes to the sex education curriculum, and the repeal of the Smokefree Legislation.
