1947 New Zealand Constitution Amendment

The New Zealand Constitution Amendment (Request and Consent) Act 1947 and New Zealand Constitution Amendment Act 1947 were two enactments passed by the Parliament of New Zealand and Parliament of the United Kingdom respectively. The Acts contributed to the independence of New Zealand, by granting the Parliament of New Zealand the complete ability to amend the New Zealand Constitution Act 1852, an enactment of the Parliament of the United Kingdom which established the institutions of responsible government in New Zealand.
