    On April 6, 2006 New Zealand Sign Language became the third official language of NZ, along side English and Maori. All three are protected by law.

    Maori and NZSL (New Zealand sign language) are the only official languages of New Zealand. English has never been given official status, but is the defacto official language of the country, by virtue of the fact that it is used in government departments and sessions, and that a very large majority of the population speaks it and nothing else.
