Eastern Bay of Plenty
Eastern Bay of Plenty is a former New Zealand parliamentary electorate, which existed for one parliamentary term from 1993 to 1996, and was held by National's Tony Ryall.
Population centres
Based on the 1991 New Zealand census, an electoral redistribution was carried out. This resulted in the abolition of nine electorates, and the creation of eleven new electorates. Through an amendment in the Electoral Act in 1965, the number of electorates in the South Island was fixed at 25, so the new electorates increased the number of the North Island electorates by two.[1] In the South Island, one electorate was abolished and one electorate was recreated. In the North Island, five electorates were newly created (including Eastern Bay of Plenty), five electorates were recreated, and eight electorates were abolished.[1][2]
The electorate included all the Ōpōtiki and Kawerau Districts, most of the Whakatane District, and a small part of the Gisborne District. The main towns were Whakatāne and Ōpōtiki, and in addition, polling booths were at Awakeri, Cape Runaway, Galatea, Kawerau, Kutarere, Matawai, Minginui, Motu, Murupara, Nukuhou, Ōhope, Omaio, Omarumutu, Otoko, Paroa, Raukokore, Ruatoki, Tāneatua, Te Kaha, Te Teko, Thornton, Tōrere, Waimana, Waioeka, Waiohau, and Woodlands.[2]
History
Tony Ryall of the National Party was the electorate's representative during its existence from 1993 to 1996. Ryall had previously represented the East Cape electorate since the 1990 election. After the Eastern Bay of Plenty electorate was abolished in 1996, Ryall transferred to the new Bay of Plenty, which he represented until his retirement from politics in 2014.[3][4]
