In all these negotiations we shall certainly not neglect the asset of our traditional relationship with Britain. Until recently. freedom of personal movement between New Zealand and the United Kingdom was taken for granted. For Britons wishing to emigrate to New Zealand. it still exists. Under current immigration rules. adopted to cope with a situation in which New Zealand had no part. New Zealanders no longer have unrestrained right to enter Britain in order to work or settle unless a parent or grandparent was Britishborn. These rules thus discriminate among New Zealanders. and although the discrimination is not overtly racial. the effect is to deny Maoris. as well as pakeha New Zealanders of longsettled families. the privileges of unrestricted entry.
