There is no specific ban on nuclear power - should be reworded to reflect that it is only party policy not any legislation blocking its introduction.
I have removed the following material from the lead, as it is detailed info which doesn't belong there, and there is a cn tag in the first sentence which needs attending to: Johnfos ( talk) 23:16, 22 October 2008 (UTC)
It does not ban nuclear power plants or other nuclear reactors on land, citation needed but relatively few New Zealanders favour nuclear power as the best energy source. [1] Officially the ban on nuclear power remains enforced in New Zealand as no political party has nuclear power generation as an official party policy. The incumbent Labour Government has completely ruled it out while the opposition New Zealand National Party does not have nuclear power as a policy. [2] [3]

The statement that the labour party's anti-nuclear stand is a "sacrosanct touchstone of New Zealand foreign policy" is very much over the top, POV and inaccurate. Opinion polls do not show overwhelming support for the policy. It was never voted on by the public. And polls at the time it was introduced showed if the public had to choose between an anti-nuclear policy and Anzus, they would choose Anzus! — Preceding unsigned comment added by 124.197.15.138 ( talk) 03:51, 19 May 2012 (UTC)
Can someone please provide evidence for the claim that "Community inspired anti-nuclear sentiments largely contributed to the New Zealand Labour Party election victory under Norman Kirk in 1972." If no evidence is found this claim should be deleted. Royalcourtier ( talk) 04:40, 16 February 2014 (UTC)
