“We have previously raised concerns about the lack of human rights scrutiny with the Government’s Cv-19 response, especially when introducing new legislation. Adequate scrutiny, particularly for mandatory measures, is essential for both enduring and effective people-centred solutions, as well as maintaining the rule of law.
“We are deeply concerned to see limited scrutiny of yet another piece of legislation with significant human rights implications.” –Lisa Woods, Campaigns Director, Amnesty International Aotearoa New Zealand
Thank you Amesty International. This is precisely what we need from government. Transparency and accountability and information. The right to make our own decisions. Not mandates nor apartheid which this government is doing and destroying our country
