Subject: Official Information request - Consistency with the New Zealand
Bill of Rights Act 1990: Covid-19 (Vaccinations) Legislation Bill (ref:
126268)

 

Dear Ministry of Justice,

 

On a document addressed to the Hon David Parker, Attorney-General titled
Legal Advice LPA 01 01 24 on the 23rd of November 2021, your ministry
stated the following:

 

2. We have not yet received a final version of the Bill. This advice has
been prepared in relation to the latest version of the Bill (PCO
24238/9.5). This advice has been prepared in an extremely short timeframe
due to the late receipt of the Bill that was not in compliance with
Cabinet Office Guidance. We will provide you with further advice if the
final version includes amendments that affect the conclusions in this
advice.

 

Please provide an explanation as to why or what was not in compliance with
the Cabinet Office Guidance.

 

Yours faithfully,

 

Nadine Connock
