It is based on the official Top 40 singles and albums , which are selected on behalf of the NZFPI , the New Zealand representative of the IFPI . On May 2nd, the official National Sales Charts (with details of the previous week's position) were published for the first time . Before that, there had been unofficial single charts, but it was the first nationwide album charts. The chart editions from December 19th to 25th were the last of the year. After that there was a break in which the chart weeks were not counted. The next chart lists did not appear until January 30, 1976.
