PRESS ASSOCIATION

New Zealand Press Association

In December 1879 the rival groups combined as the United Press Association. This name remained until 1942 when it was changed to the New Zealand Press Association Ltd., to stress its national scope and character. The association still maintains its original, strictly non-political organisation.
