That this House notes the exceptional achievements of William Ferguson Massey, born in Limavady, County Londonderry in 1856 and who passed away on 10 May 1925; recognises his significant contribution as Prime Minister of New Zealand from 1912 to 1925; acknowledges his role in founding the NZ Reform Party and his leadership during a pivotal period in New Zealand’s history including the First World War; further notes his unwavering belief in the bond between New Zealand and the United Kingdom; and expresses the hope that the centenary of his passing can further mark the deep cultural, historical, and diplomatic ties between our nations, strengthened by figures such as the man widely known as Farmer Bill Massey.
