Wairarapa MPs declare personal wealth

MARAMA FOX: Owns a home in Masterton.

Wairarapa MP Alastair Scott has more than the proverbial roof over his head - he has three of them.

The just-published register of Pecuniary and Other Specified Interests for New Zealand's MPs shows Mr Scott owns a family home in Kelburn, Wellington; a house on his Matahiwi Vineyard land just out of Masterton; and a beach property at Ohope, near Whakatane.

Apart from his vineyard he has business interests in Dairy Investment Fund, beneficial interests in three family trusts and belongs to the ANZ Kiwisaver superannuation scheme.

Mr Scott received directors fees from Henergy Cage Free Eggs, although as of January 31 he was no longer listed as a director.

On the debtors side of the ledger Mr Scott has two long-term loans, both to family trusts.

Wairarapa New Zealand First list MP Ron Mark has a family home (owned by a trust) in Carterton, a leasehold property at McLeans Island, Christchurch, and shares in numerous blocks of Maori land.

He belongs to Fidelity Kiwisaver superannuation scheme, has directorships and controlling interests in Ron Mark Consulting, Maaka Developments and Super Splat (NZ) a shelf company that is not trading. He is involved in many other companies and business entities, organisations, trusts and trusteeships, mostly relating to Maori incorporations or trusts.

Wairarapa Maori Party list MP Marama Fox has a jointly owned family home in Masterton.

She also belongs to two superannuation schemes, ASB Kiwisaver and the Government Superannuation Fund.

She is involved with four organisations and trusts seeking government funding including the Maori Women's Welfare League.
