Davina Smolders states her case to the Far North District Council


Davina Smolders states her case, in this short video, before the Far North District councillors voted to remove her from the council’s Te Kūaka committee, following her public criticism of its structure, unelected iwi and hapū representatives and Te Tiriti partnerships.


Davina Smolders is a proud Far North local, business owner, and former CEO and now serving as an Councillor on the Far North District Council, Davina is focused on building a council that’s fair, balanced, and transparent.

Councils removing elected officials from committees. Another step closer to the end of democracy in NZ.
