MCGUIRE v SECRETARY FOR JUSTICE [2019] NZHC 42
- Citation
- [2019] NZHC 42
- Court
- High Court
The Secretary lawfully declined the applicant's Criminal PAL 1 approval because the applicant did not meet the regulatory definition of 'recent experience' and the Secretary was not satisfied he had the requisite current knowledge and skill to justify waiving that requirement; the Selection Committee was properly constituted and its recommendation lawful; the Law Society's certificate of standing accurately reflected the position as at its issue and did not invalidate the Secretary's decision; judicial review dismissed.
