History

The Ministry was formed on 1 September 1999 and took over the function of the Ministry of Cultural Affairs. The first minister was the then-Prime Minister Helen Clark[2], who held this role until the end of the Fifth Labour Government of New Zealand in 2008.

In November 2008, Chris Finlayson became the second Minister for Arts,Culture and Heritage.[3] The Ministry is also charged with advising and providing services to the Minister of Broadcasting, Hon Dr Jonathan Coleman and the Minister for Sport and Recreation, Hon Murray McCully in relation to Crown-funded sports agencies.

Functions

Unlike some other government bodies the Ministry does not have a single piece of legislation which covers its operation: its role is spread across dozens of current acts and regulations.[4] These include:

  • Administering the following Orders in Council:
    • Canterbury Earthquake (Historic Places Act) Order 2011[5]
    • Television New Zealand (Separation of Transmission Business) Order 2003[6]
    • Historic Places Trust Elections Regulations 1993[7]


  • Consultation responsibilities under many acts relating the Treaty of Waitangi settlements.
    • Port Nicholson Block (Taranaki Whānui ki Te Upoko o Te Ika) Claims Settlement Act 2009[21]
    • Ngaa Rauru Kiitahi Claims Settlement Act 2005[22]
