National Party

Strongly agree

Yes, as long as they pass the same background checks as straight couples

This answer aligns with the National Party's general support for LGBTQ+ rights while also emphasizing the importance of background checks for all prospective adoptive parents. This stance is likely to be more agreeable to the party's conservative base.

Agree

Yes

The National Party has shown some support for LGBTQ+ rights, such as voting in favor of the Marriage (Definition of Marriage) Amendment Act in 2013, which legalized same-sex marriage in New Zealand. However, the party has a more conservative base, and not all members may fully support equal adoption rights for gay couples.

Slightly disagree

No, and I believe a mother and father family structure is best for the child

While some members of the National Party may hold more conservative views on family structure, the party as a whole has not explicitly advocated for a mother and father family structure as the best option for children. Their support for same-sex marriage suggests that they may not strongly agree with this stance.

Disagree

No, and adoption agencies should prioritize offering children to straight couples before offering to gay couples

Strongly disagree

No, and gay couples should not be able to adopt children
