The by-election follows the death of Te Pāti Māori Member of Parliament Takutai Tarsh Kemp on June 26.

The by-election Writ Day will be Wednesday, July 30.
The deadline for candidate nominations to be received will be midday Tuesday, August 5, and the last day for the return of the Writ will be Sunday, September 28.
