Early life

Member of Parliament

Template:NZ parlbox header Template:NZ parlbox Template:NZ parlbox Template:NZ parlbox Template:NZ parlbox Template:NZ parlbox footer In the 1999 election, Chadwick stood as the Labour Party candidate for the Rotorua seat, and defeated incumbent National Party MP Max Bradford. At the 2005 election she was narrowly returned to Parliament by 662 or 2.2% more votes than her opponent.<ref>Official Count Results – Rotorua Template:Webarchive</ref>

In 2006, Chadwick's Shop Trading Hours Act Repeal (Easter Trading) Amendment Bill was drawn from the member's ballot.<ref>{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web }}</ref> The bill passed its first reading and was sent to select committee, but was narrowly defeated at the second reading, 64 to 57.<ref>New Zealand Parliamentary Debates 639 9308.</ref>

In 2007, she was appointed to Cabinet as Minister of Conservation and Women's Affairs,<ref>Template:Cite journal</ref> as well as becoming an Associate Minister of Health.<ref name="Stuff.co.nz_36226">Template:Cite news</ref>

In the 2008 general election, Chadwick lost her seat to National's Todd McClay, whose margin was over 5000.<ref>{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web }}</ref> Chadwick's loss was predicted by some commentators due to boundary changes which incorporated more rural areas into the electorate.<ref name="NZ_Herald_10437712">Template:Cite news</ref> However, due to Chadwick's list place of 30 she was able to return to parliament.

In 2010, Chadwick attempted to introduce a bill to Parliament to partially liberalise abortion law. This bill was defeated at the caucus stage and was not brought before Parliament.<ref name="NZ_Herald_10656210">Template:Cite news</ref>

Chadwick failed to regain her seat in the 2011 election, losing to Todd McClay by a margin of more than 7,000 votes.<ref>{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web }}</ref> On 27 November 2011 she announced that she would be retiring from politics.<ref>Template:Cite news</ref>

As a cabinet minister, Chadwick was entitled to the title of The Honourable and became The Hon. Mrs Stephanie (Steve) Chadwick<ref>Template:Cite journal</ref> which is a title she was granted for the rest of her life<ref>Template:Cite journal</ref> after leaving parliament.

Mayor of Rotorua

Chadwick contested the Rotorua mayoralty in the local elections of that year, challenging sitting mayor Kevin Winters. Chadwick defeated Winters and three other candidates, receiving more than 11,000 votes from a total 19,596 votes cast.<ref>Template:Cite news</ref>

At the 2016 local-body elections, Chadwick again ran for mayor, defeating six other candidates, receiving 8,990 of a total 21,408 votes cast<ref>Template:Cite news</ref>

Chadwick's husband, John Chadwick, died in Rotorua on 26 May 2017.<ref name="Rotorua Post 2017"/>

In 2020, Chadwick announced a zero percent rates increase in the Rotorua Lakes Council's 2020/2021 annual plan to cushion the financial blow of the COVID-19 pandemic, which had severely impacted the district's tourism industry.<ref>{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web }}</ref>

Chadwick did not stand for re-election as mayor in the 2022 elections.<ref>Template:Cite news</ref>

In the 2022 New Year Honours, Chadwick was appointed a Companion of the Queen's Service Order, for services to local government and as a Member of Parliament.<ref>Template:Cite news</ref>

Post-mayoral activities
