  4. R. Haines (‘Citizenship and Nationality’, The Laws of New Zealand (Auckland: Butterworths, 1994), p. 31 comments that: ‘New Zealand legislation contains no generally applicable definition of “alien”’. However, for the purposes of the Citizenship Act 1977, an alien is a person who does not have the status of a New Zealand citizen, a Commonwealth citizen (British subject), a British protected person, or an Irish citizen.
