New Zealand’s own constitution shifted a little in a similar direction in 2015 (though not so seismically), and Parliament is now exploring how to adjust to the new landscape.
The change was caused by a court case between a prisoner and the crown (Taylor v Attorney General) about the right to vote. In its decision the High Court decided it had the right to declare a law inconsistent with another nominally ‘higher’ law, the Bill of Rights.
The then government appealed that adoption of a new power but the Supreme Court agreed with the earlier decision. And hey presto - slightly different constitutional landscape.

Students from CUZ in the Chinese city of Hangzhou, will be taught online by staff from the Wellington Faculty of Humanities and Social Sciences from September this year
Students in China will have the chance to study communications from afar after a new partnership between Te Herenga Waka–Victoria University of Wellington and Communications University of Zhejiang (CUZ). Students from CUZ in the Chinese city of Hangzhou will be taught online by staff from the Wellington Faculty of Humanities and Social Sciences from this September as part of an undergraduate degree joint programme majoring in Intercultural Communication. The objectives are to give Chinese students access to “world-class scholars” in humanities research, learning and teaching.
Further down, large sections of sandy sedimentation reveal a time during the last glacial period when sea levels were around 125m below where they are now, and a landbridge connected what is now the North and South Islands. These discoveries were coming out of a commercial project designed to give a new building on Whitmore St in the centre of the CBD the best possible foundations. Environmental consultancy firm ENGEO were analysing samples taken from 10 bores on the site, and specialist Dr Matt Ryan soon realised there were telltale signs of internationally significant geological events. Ryan has a Ph.D from Victoria University of Wellington in geology focusing on analysing paleo vegetation and saw in one of the samples what appeared to be evidence of supervolcanic ash.
