looking backat records,  I do have some evidence of a marriage for mb in n.z.
HAY-Sym.-At Christ Churoh, Butbiton, on the 11th instant Malcolm Bell Hay,
M.R.C.S. L.R C P son of the late T. B. Hay, M R C.S., L Rb P of Ohristchurch,
New Zeald'd -to Minnie, second daughter of Frederick Richard gyms, of Lanreath,
the Avenue, Aurbiton.
Announced in BJM Nov 1902
so minnie's parents must also have gone to n.z.

Have looked at medical registers and mb at various address in UK.
One intresting fact on some of the incoming pass. lists address in UK as Royal Society Club, St James St, London.  Was this some sort of Medical Research centre?

Google search for R.S.C. brings up various clubs St James St, London, one of them being Royal Society of Medicine, so that was prob. where mb was a member.

thanks crisane, wonder if he was working on the ships as a doctor, what do you think?

In 1907 he certainly was.  Ship R. M. S. Antony. Commander Harry Forbes, Surgeon Dr M B Hay.
Departed Liverpool Intended destination Manaus Brazil date of arrival 9 Oct 1907

The other voyages are 1912, 1916, 1919, 1921, 1923, 1924 and 1926.
as someone has already said I also think he was an employee of the Colonial Govt and his fellow passengers are also have the same employer but in varying capacities.

Is it possible that the NZ record of marriage you have is an announcement of Malcolm and Minnies marriage'
taking place in England and just letting the familę's friends in NZ know about it. I say this because there is no record of a marriage on NZ BMD's.

Just to clarify the marriage - Nothing on the NZ marriage index,so had a quick look on the paperspast site and there was an announcement in the Evening Post on 31/12/1902;
PERSONAL NOTES FROM LONDON.

(From Our OwnCorrespondent.) LONDON, 21st November.
 At Christ Church, Surbiton, the .wedding recently took place of Mr. Malcolm  Bell Hay, M.R.C.S., L.R.C.P., only son of the late Mr. T. B. Hay, of Christchurch, New Zealand, and Miss Minnie' Syms, second daughter of Mr. F. R. Syms, of Lanreath, the Avenue, Surbiton.
Hope this is useful :D
