He was a member of the New Zealand First party. Early life and careerDonnelly was born in Auckland, New Zealand as the third of five children. His father worked as a fabric cutter and later as a real estate agent.[1] Donnelly attended Sacred Heart College on a scholarship. He studied at Massey University and Auckland University, and received a Bachelor of Arts, a Bachelor of Education, a Master of Educational Administration, a Diploma in Teaching, and a Diploma in Second Language Teaching.[2] He then worked in the education sector in New Zealand and the Cook Islands, which included deputy principal at Titikaveka College in Rarotonga from 1977–80, and principal of Whangarei Intermediate School from 1990–6 (only resigning from the latter on entering parliament).

In the 1996 election, with the advent of the MMP system, Donnelly was ranked third on the New Zealand First party list, and entered Parliament. He has retained his third-place position in New Zealand First's list until his retirement. When New Zealand First formed a coalition with the National Party, Donnelly became Minister Responsible for the Education Review Office, Associate Minister of Education, and Associate Minister of Pacific Island Affairs. When the coalition disintegrated, and New Zealand First itself began to splinter, Donnelly was one of those MPs who remained loyal to the party. He was one of five New Zealand First MPs to avoid the collapse of the party's vote in the 1999 election. After the 2002 election he was appointed chair of Parliament's Education and Science Committee. Donnelly has been regarded as a social liberal within his caucus, and voted for civil unions in New Zealand as well as Sue Bradford's more recent private members bill to remove the provision allowing parents to use reasonable force in correcting their children. In retaliation, current New Zealand First Party President Dail Jones threatened demotion of the long-serving List MP, as well as fellow repeal supporter Doug Woolerton.{{Citation needed|date=May 2010}} In contrast to other New Zealand First Members of Parliament, Donnelly was widely respected by Members from other political parties.[1] In February 2008, Donnelly was appointed as New Zealand's High Commissioner to the Cook Islands, and Dail Jones was sworn in to replace him as a list MP on 15 February 2008. Donnelly was a speaker of Cook Islands Māori, unlike most Foreign Affairs diplomats. Personal lifeDonnelly met his wife Linda through teaching and they married in 1970. They had three children, Theresa, Ioane, and Erena.[1] Illness and deathIn August 2008, Donnelly resigned from his position due to ill health.[3] He was made a Companion of the Queen's Service Order in 2008.[4] Brian Donnelly died on 25 September 2008.[5] References1. ^1 2 {{cite news|title=Brian Donnelly: Politician without enemies|url=http://www.stuff.co.nz/dominion-post/news/obituaries/654710/Brian-Donnelly|accessdate=30 October 2012|newspaper=Stuff.co.nz|date=2 October 2008}} 2. ^{{cite news|title=Obituaries — Hon Brian Donnelly|url=http://www.parliament.nz/en-NZ/PB/Debates/Debates/3/a/9/48HansD_20080925_00000472-Obituaries-Hon-Brian-Donnelly.htm|accessdate=30 October 2012|newspaper=Hansard, New Zealand Parliament|date=23 September 2008}} 3. ^Ill health forces NZ High Commissioner to Cooks to resign, 14 August 2008 4. ^Picture {{webarchive |url=https://web.archive.org/web/20081014082253/http://www.gg.govt.nz/gallery/media/image408.jpg |date=14 October 2008 }} gg.govt.nz 5. ^{{cite news|url=http://www.nzherald.co.nz/nz/news/article.cfm?c_id=1&objectid=10534248|title=Ex-NZ First MP dies|publisher=The New Zealand Herald|date=25 September 2008}} External links
