I'm OK with that on principal if the "foreigner" is someone that has the right to permanently reside in NZ (basically the rules as for the right to vote - http://www.elections.org.nz/voters/enrol-check-or-update-now/who-can-and-cant-enrol http://www.elections.org.nz/voters/enrol-check-or-update-now...).
