Political party in New Zealand
The Ban 1080 Party was a political party in New Zealand that opposed the use of sodium fluoroacetate (1080) poison, which is widely used in New Zealand for controlling mammalian pests such as possums and rats.[2] [3] [4] [5] Electoral Commission in 2014[6] [7]
Policies
[ edit ]
The Ban 1080 Party's stated policy was "to develop a pathway to a solution that includes the following elements:
To immediately stop the Department of Conservation 's controlled aerial 1080 poison programme.
To develop a science-based, measurable programme that includes
Species specific protection plans,
Targeted pest control, using people not poison,
Community conservation involvement.
To protect all waterways by ensuring no future aerial poison drops."[8]
The party considered that the Department of Conservation "has an important task in working to protect and preserve our natural environment", but believes that aerial 1080 drops harm native species and are ineffective at controlling rat and stoat populations.[9]
