Progress on establishing a Criminal Cases Review Commission

Ross Francis made this Official Information request to Ministry of Justice

The request was partially successful.

From: Ross Francis

Dear Ministry of Justice,

In 2007, the Justice Ministry provided advice to the Government regarding options for establishing a Criminal Cases Review Commission. What work (if any) has been carried out by the Ministry, or any other Ministry or agency, to progress any of the options that were discussed? Please provide copies of all records held by the Justice Ministry about this issue.

According to records held by the Justice Ministry, what is required for a conviction to be considered unsafe?

Since 1 January 2012, has the Department of Internal Affairs - or any other Minstry or agency - communicated with the Justice Ministry about its obligations under the Public Records Act? Have any complaints been received by the Justice Ministry about it its record keeping since the introduction of the Public Records Act? Please provide all records held about these two questions.

Please contact me if you have any queries regarding this request.

Yours faithfully,

Ross Francis
