These are factual counts from the public record, not a score. MPs do different jobs: list and electorate MPs, ministers and backbenchers all contribute differently, and MPs first elected in 2023 have a shorter record. We show the facts so you can decide what counts as doing enough.

Voting record

Most votes in Parliament are party votes, where MPs vote as a block with their party. So on the large majority of votes Mariameno Kapa-Kingi voted the same way as Independent. The votes that show an MP’s own view are conscience (personal) votes, where MPs vote individually.

No conscience (personal) votes are recorded for Mariameno Kapa-Kingi this term. These votes are rare, because Parliament decides most matters by party vote. We record them from Hansard as they occur.
