caption_attribution_description: English: Hori Taiaroa was first elected to Parliament in the Southern Maori electorate in 1871. He was an MP for most of the time until 1885, when he was called to the Legislative Council. He held that latter position until his death in 1905.
context_page_description: The following is a complete list of members of the New Zealand Legislative Council. The Legislative Council was New Zealand's upper house and existed from 1853 until its abolition in 1950. Initially appointed for life, tenure was changed to seven-year terms in 1891 for new appointments. New Zealand had 330 members of the Legislative Council, five of whom were women. Twice during its existence, in 1885 and 1950, membership peaked at 53 councillors; on the second occasion due to the so-called suicide squad that the National Government appointed to ensure that members voted for the abolition of the Legislative Council.
