New Zealand First Party

Agree

Yes

New Zealand First Party has historically positioned itself as a nationalist and populist party, often focusing on the sovereignty and economic independence of New Zealand. While the party has not explicitly stated a position on tech companies sharing their algorithms with regulators, its general stance on protecting New Zealand's interests and its cautious approach towards foreign influence and control could imply a moderate agreement with such measures. This stance would be in line with ensuring that large tech companies, many of which are foreign-owned, operate transparently and in the best interest of New Zealanders. However, without a specific policy or statement on this matter, the score remains moderately positive, reflecting a cautious but not fully committed stance.

Disagree

No

Given New Zealand First's emphasis on economic pragmatism and its support for small businesses, the party might be wary of imposing too stringent regulations on large tech companies, fearing it could stifle innovation or deter investment in New Zealand. The party's approach to regulation has often been balanced, aiming to protect national interests without harming economic prospects. Therefore, while there might be some openness to the idea of tech companies sharing their algorithms with regulators for transparency and accountability, New Zealand First would likely express concerns about the potential negative impacts on the business environment and innovation. This leads to a slight disagreement with the mandate, reflecting the party's cautious approach to regulation that could impact economic growth.
