New Zealanders will be able to vote on whether their country should be freed from feudalism if a Head of State Bill is passed by Parliament.
The Bill would require a referendum with three options: a republic with the head of state chosen by Parliament; a republic with a head of state elected by the people; or retention of the hereditary right of the of the head of Britain’s Windsor family to be head of state.
The Bill was picked for debate in a ballot of MPs.
