Ani O'Brien: Institutional Insanity - The Law Commission jumps the shark in new report


'Ia Tangata' has been published and it is as bad as I predicted

When I first warned about the Law Commission’s Ia Tangata review, I said it would be used to smuggle an activist ideology into the Human Rights Act. I said it would not simply “clarify protections” but would tilt the entire playing field, shifting the balance of rights, placing new burdens on ordinary New Zealanders, and hard-coding gender ideology into law.

The report is now out, and unfortunately, I was right.
