What are the WriteMark New Zealand Plain English Awards?
Each year, organisations and members of the public submit documents and websites that they think are outstanding examples of plain English — or of gobbledygook.
Independent panels of plain English experts and advocates judge the entries and decide the finalists and winners in each category.
How do I enter the 2011 Plain English Awards?

The awards are hosted by the WriteMark Plain English Awards Trust.
The Plain English Awards aim to:
-
improve government and business documents so that all New Zealanders can understand them
-
raise public awareness of the need for, and benefits of, plain English
-
create a public preference for organisations that choose to communicate in plain English.
