New Zealanders can have an impact on the direction of criminal justice reform in New Zealand, using a new digital engagement platform from the Hāpaitia te Oranga Tangata – Safe and Effective Justice initiative.
Using the platform, the public can share their opinions on a range of reform topics that have emerged from the national conversation to date. [The survey has now closed, thank you for your contributions]
The Hāpaitia te Oranga Tangata – Safe and Effective Justice initiative was set up by the Minister of Justice in July 2018 to help transform the criminal justice system and create a safer Aotearoa New Zealand.
