Given sufficient time it won't be a question of whether or not 'NZ' is recognised as an ethnicity but which NZ ethnicity you subscribe to given we are have a very rich and mixed heritage. Reading about the various Oriental ethnic groups, maybe we will end up with the following ethnic categories within NZ :

Wanganuite
Whanganuite
Swede-eater
West Coaster
Speights drinker
Buller rugby supporter
descendants of the pioneers on board the ship 'London' which arrived in 1840
Northland and Coromandel growers of plants used for recreational purposes
owners of pre-1965 cars (or motorbikes)
contributors to online forums
people who wear hats when driving
people with more than the average number of toes
and the rest.

433571 2006-03-05 09:44:00 Hope I'm not repeating comment from anyone else....but it's come to my notice that if you complete your census forms on the net....by the time you get to the ethnicity question....and if you have already stated that you were born in New Zealand, then the "other"..................portion has been greyed out!!
