NEW Zealand's ballot for 2000 places at the centenary Anzac dawn service at Gallipoli has been delayed for a fortnight following a request from Australia.
The ballot was to have opened on Friday but has been delayed until November 15. It will still close on January 31 with results announced next April.
"There was a request from the Australian government for a two-week delay to give them more time to get organised, because we're running the dates in parallel," a spokesman for New Zealand Veterans Affairs Minister Michael Woodhouse told NZ Newswire.
A total of 10,500 places will be available at the centenary commemorations in 2015, with 2000 allocated to New Zealand, 8000 to Australia and 500 for official representatives from Turkey and other countries.
The four-to-one ratio for Australia and New Zealand allocations is based on the relative number of casualties during the Gallipoli campaign in 1915.
Attendance passes will be free, but New Zealanders who are successful in the ballot will need to make their own travel arrangements and meet all their own costs.
Further details on the ballot are available on www.gallipoli2015.govt.nz
