- Supreme Court
The Supreme Court granted leave to appeal and cross‑appeal and framed the certified questions for determination: whether the Court of Appeal was correct to declare the statutory schemes inconsistent with s 26(2) of the NZBORA and whether it was correct not to make declarations under other specified Bill of Rights provisions; the Attorney‑General's principal contention is that interpretive remedies can and should be applied to avoid declarations.
