Step 2
My eligibility statement (the legal bits that check whether you can stand)

Please confirm whether you are
A permanently-appointed employee of the Board?

Subject to a property order under the Protection of Personal and Property Rights Act 1988?
A person in respect of whom a personal court order has been made that you are not competent to manage your own property affairs, or do not have the capacity to communicate/make decisions relating to your welfare or personal care?

Not a New Zealand citizen, and is a person to whom section 15 or 16 of the Immigration Act 2009 applies; or a person obliged, by or pursuant to that Act, to leave New Zealand immediately or within a specified time, being a time that was less than 12 months?
