About ACT
National/ACT Agreement
"I see National and ACT's Confidence and Supply Agreement as a victory for democracy.
A week ago New Zealand voted for a Centre-Right government and today, with this historic agreement, we have one.
All our discussions this week indicate we have the basis for a long and fruitful relationship based on mutual respect.
This isn't an agreement cobbled together out of self-interest, but one developed through our shared vision to create a better and brighter future for New Zealand." - Rodney Hide

Our Policies
At the 2008 election, ACT produced a 20 Point Plan to turn New Zealand around and help us catch up to Australia over the coming years.
The plan covers a wide range of issues from Government Expenditure and Taxation to Law And Order and Climate Change and there are also detailed policy documents available for each point of the plan.
The Confidence And Supply Agreement between ACT and National covers many of the points in the plan and ACT will also work to towards improved policy in the other areas over the next three years.
