She was appointed in 1987, following the creation of the role by the Environment Act 1986. Hughes discovered her passion for botany while a student at Nelson College for Girls, and studied toward a Masters degree before obtaining a Fulbright grant to travel to the United States. Upon her return to New Zealand, she taught at Christchurch Girls' High School before undertaking a PhD at Lincoln University.[1] She said jobs for women in science at the time were hard to come by and there was "a bit of an old boys network operating".[1] Hughes worked in Fiji for three years, for the Department of Scientific and Industrial Research (DSIR). Back in New Zealand, she worked as assistant commissioner for the Commission for the Environment, before becoming the first Parliamentary Commissioner for the Environment in 1987 in the newly-formed office.[1] During her tenure, she wrote numerous reports and submissions on a variety of environmental issues,[2] including flood mitigations following Cyclone Bola,[3] controlling marine oil pollution,[4] the environmental management of coal mining,[5] and possum management.[6] Hughes was the daughter of Sir Theodore Rigg, former director of Cawthron Institute. She also spent 13 years on Cawthron Institute's board.[1] Her stepmother was Kathleen Curtis, Lady Rigg, a notable mycologist. Hughes was appointed a Commander of the Order of the British Empire in the 1993 Queen's Birthday Honours.[7] She is a Companion of the Royal Society of New Zealand.[8] References1. ^1 2 3 {{cite web|title=Science in the genes for celebrated botanist|url=http://www.stuff.co.nz/nelson-mail/news/88603248/Science-in-the-genes-for-celebrated-botanist|website=stuff.co.nz|accessdate=5 August 2017|date=8 March 2017}} {{DEFAULTSORT:Hughes, Helen}}2. ^{{cite web|title=PCE Archive|url=http://www.pce.parliament.nz/publications/archive|website=Parliamentary Commissioner for the Environment|accessdate=5 August 2017}} 3. ^{{cite web|title=Inquiry into Flood Mitigation Measures Following Cyclone Bola|url=http://www.pce.parliament.nz/publications/archive/1987-1996/inquiry-into-flood-mitigation-measures-following-cyclone-bola|website=Parliamentary Commissioner for the Environment|accessdate=5 August 2017|date=December 1988}} 4. ^{{cite web|title=The Control of Marine Oil Pollution in NZ – A Review of the System|url=http://www.pce.parliament.nz/publications/archive/1987-1996/the-control-of-marine-oil-pollution-in-nz-a-review-of-the-system|website=Parliamentary Commissioner for the Environment|accessdate=5 August 2017|date=April 1991}} 5. ^{{cite web|title=Environmental Management of Coal Mining|url=http://www.pce.parliament.nz/publications/archive/1987-1996/environmental-management-of-coal-mining|website=Parliamentary Commissioner for the Environment|accessdate=5 August 2017|date=December 1992}} 6. ^{{cite web|title=Possum Management in New Zealand|url=http://www.pce.parliament.nz/publications/archive/1987-1996/possum-management-in-new-zealand|website=Parliamentary Commissioner for the Environment|accessdate=5 August 2017|date=May 1994}} 7. ^{{cite web|title=1993 Queen's Birthday Honours|url=http://www.aucklandcity.govt.nz/dbtw-wpd/exec/dbtwpub.dll?AC=SEE_ALSO&QF0=Descriptors&QI0==%22Hughes,+Helen+Hannah+Rigg,+(nee+Rigg),+1929-%22&XC=/dbtw-wpd/exec/dbtwpub.dll&BU=&TN=LocHAM&SN=AUTO20655&SE=1527&RN=0&MR=20&TR=0&TX=1000&ES=0&CS=1&XP=&RF=Displayweb&EF=&DF=&RL=0&EL=0&DL=0&NP=2&ID=&MF=WPEngMsg.ini&MQ=&TI=0&DT=&ST=0&IR=3288&NR=0&NB=0&SV=0&SS=0&BG=&FG=&QS=&OEX=ISO-8859-1&OEH=ISO-8859-1|website=Auckland Council|accessdate=5 August 2017}} 8. ^{{Cite web|url=https://royalsociety.org.nz/who-we-are/our-people/our-companions/view-our-companions/|title=List of Companions of the Royal Society of New Zealand|last=|first=|date=|website=royalsociety.org.nz|archive-url=|archive-date=|dead-url=|access-date=27 November 2018}} 10 : Officers of the Parliament of New Zealand|New Zealand women scientists|Lincoln University (New Zealand) alumni|Living people|People educated at Nelson College for Girls|New Zealand public servants|People associated with the Cawthron Institute|New Zealand Commanders of the Order of the British Empire|Companions of the Royal Society of New Zealand|Year of birth missing (living people) |
