• Seems fine, though personally I would recommend the hook be slightly amended - see below. Recently expanded substantially well beyond five-fold. Article uses WP:IC and has no noticeable problems. The notable fact is cited to a 1922 newspaper article. Picture is out of copyright and used in article. The hook caught my attention, but I think it would make more immediate sense to non-familar readers if it said 'New Zealand House of Representatives'. I've amended this, considering it is fairly non-controversial. Sionk (talk) 18:47, 14 July 2012 (UTC)
