Ian John Shearer (10 December 1941 – 1 June 2021) was a New Zealand politician of the National Party, environmentalist and research scientist.

Early life and education

Shearer was born at Whakatāne in 1941, the son of Jack Sewell Shearer.[1] He received his education from Whakatane Primary and Whakatane High School. He completed bachelor's and master's degrees at Massey University in agricultural science and a PhD in reproductive physiology at the University of Nottingham.[1][2][3]

Career

Shearer spent nine years as an animal scientist at the Ruakura Research Centre before becoming a member of parliament in 1975.[2]

New Zealand Parliament
Years Term Electorate Party
1975–1978 38th Hamilton East National
1978–1981 39th Hamilton East National
1981–1984 40th Hamilton East National

He represented the Hamilton East electorate in Parliament from 1975 to 1984,[4] when he was defeated by Bill Dillon.[5] Under Robert Muldoon, he was Minister for the Environment, Minister of Science and Technology, and Minister of Broadcasting.[6]

In 1985, Shearer publicly questioned the National Party on membership and finances, which resulted in the suspension of his membership in October of that year. Although the suspension was lifted, Shearer resigned all his party roles in December 1985.[7] He later joined the New Zealand First Party which was largely made up of National Party dissidents and stood as the New Zealand First candidate in the Onehunga electorate at the 1993 general election, losing to Labour's Richard Northey.[8]

After leaving politics Shearer was the dean of science and engineering at the Auckland University of Technology for nine years and served on the Waitangi Tribunal. He retired from public service in 2005.[2]

He published his autobiography The Boy from the Bay in 2006.[9]

Personal life

Shearer was married twice, firstly to Sandra May Griffiths, the daughter of Ivor David Griffiths on 5 December 1964,[1] and secondly to Cheryl.[2] He and Sandra had one son and one daughter.[1]

Shearer died from idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis at his home in Whakatāne on 1 June 2021.[10][11]
