Together Government of New Zealand

The Together Government of New Zealand is the incoming government of New Zealand. It is headed by alisonhearts, the Together for All leader and prime minister. The government is yet to be sworn in.

Formation
In the aftermath of the March 2023 general election, no party commanded anything close to a majority in New Zealand's parliament. The coalition forming period lasted for ten days from the day of the election. On 4 April 2023, in a press conference at the Beehive theatrette, alisonhearts announced that her Together for All party would be forming a coalition with the New Zealand Labour Party, with support from Te Pāti Māori, the Globe Party, and the New Zealand National Party.

The coalition agreement between Together and Labour contained commitments to, among other things, restore the Zero Carbon Act, introduce a basic income, make wage theft a criminal offence, restore the Shipping Corporation as a state-owned enterprise, and establish a Dawn Raids Commission.

In exchange for their support on matters of confidence-and-supply, Te Pāti Māori was granted input into the budget and government policies on Māori affairs, as well as the positions of associate minister of finance and associate minister of Māori and Pasifika affairs. In a similar confidence-and-supply deal, the Globe Party was granted the Internal Affairs portfolio, as well as promised commitments to dense housing, increasing the number of student visas offered by 50% over five years, and increasing Immigration New Zealand funding by 30%.

The National Party agreed to provide support to the government on confidence and supply and all matters of policy in exchange for assurances that New Zealand would not be divided, no powers would be devolved to the South Island, and that charter schools would be abolished, the latter of which was also stated in the coalition agreement.
