2) What are the number and percentage of people that resettled in New Zealand (yearly figure traced back to as far as you have the record) fled their country of origin due to ethnic persecution?

3) What are the number and percentage of people that resettled in New Zealand (yearly figure traced back to as far as you have the record) fled their country of origin due to political persecution?
