Should women be allowed to wear a Niqāb, or face veil, to civic ceremonies?

Muslims are culturally and (typically) ethnically incompatible with European values and thus they should not live amongst us, nor should we live in their countries. This is the best way to achieve peace between Christendom and the Islamic world

No, If you move to NZ for a new life then you should adapt and respect local customs, culture and traditions

Respect cultural traditions goes both ways, so if you decide to live in NZ, there needs to be an element of adaption to cultural traditions, just as any cultural tradition evolves over time

I think it's sad that they feel unsafe in this country that they feel that they have to hide their faces.

Depends if it's a security risk

I don't think we should have civic ceremonies at all.

Yes, but there needs to be some way of verification beforehand
