Opposition to Regulatory Standards Bill

AWLA recently filed submissions against the Regulatory Standards Bill based on our concerns with its:

(a) introduction of important constitutional standards without serious
consideration being given to the constitutional implications of codification;
(b) legal framework and failure to achieve its purpose;
(c) deliberate exclusion of Te Tiriti o Waitangi and entrenchment of contested
ideology under the guise of neutral regulatory standards; and
(d) failure to meet the test of good law-making, having been developed without
meaningful consultation, cross-party support, or Treaty consistent policy
design.

You can read AWLA’s submissions below.
