Timeline

1946

At 46th on the party list, Shanks was the highest-placed National list candidate not to be elected (indeed, the election night result projected that she would be elected but the final result saw National's result drop by one seat).

She was placed again at 46th on the party list and National's stronger party vote result meant that she returned to Parliament.

National, with Dunne's support, formed a new minority Government.

1969

Katrina May Shanks (born 12 May 1969) is a former New Zealand politician who was a list member of parliament for the National Party from 2007 to 2014.

She graduated with a Bachelor of Business Studies from Massey University.

1975

Shanks' father, Graeme Hislop, contested the Pahiatua electorate for Social Credit in 1975 and in the 1977 by-election.

2008

In the 2008 general election, Shanks contested the new Ōhariu electorate but did not intend to win.
