Interesting to note that Chief commissioner Jan Pryor (mentioned in the above article from the NZ Herald)
attends this event on bioethics training:
(Bioethics looks like it is the new fancy word for eugenics...possibly far worse on account of the new technology available)
See: Bioethics = eugenics here:

Strengthening Ethics Review
The Sulo Hotel, Philippines
2-7 April 2003

RATIONALE
The increase in health research as well as the growing recognition of bioethics in the Asia Pacific Region has created a demand for programs aimed at building competencies and skills in ethics review and research. There is a need for people who have the capacity to apply ethical theories, concepts and principles to concrete research situations. |
Considering that those who founded Bioethics (and that bioethics, as far as I am aware, was brought about on account of a Congressional Mandate in 1978 and has nothing to do with traditional medical ethics) came out of the American Eugenics Society, these are a rather unpleasant bunch. |

Jan Pryor is mentioned here:
Quote: | Chief commissioner Jan Pryor espouses her beliefs that "positive parenting should never include a smack" (Herald, April 3).
Her so-called justification for the anti-smacking laws are inflammatory and continue to vilify good parents who may use a smack as part of good parental correction.
As a mother of two young children, I resent the constant barrage that fully funded, power-packed organisations such as the Families Commission can constantly deliver from their lofty soap-boxes. |
