ACT New Zealand
In 1993, Roger Douglas opened a new chapter in New Zealand's political history by forming the Association of Consumers and Taxpayers.
In 1995, after the MMP referendum, this became ACT New Zealand, the political party which contested the 1996 General Election and gained eight Parliamentary seats and at the 1999 General Elections, gained nine Parliamentary seats.
Sir Roger has been President of ACT New Zealand for several years, retiring from the position at the party's 2001 Annual Conference.
Sir Roger returned to the New Zealand Parliament as an ACT List MP in the General Election of 2008.
