AI-generated Abstract

The paper discusses the relationship between policy and law, focusing on the implications of the 2001 Amendment to the New Zealand Human Rights Act 1993. It argues that the incorporation of human rights into New Zealand's legal framework demonstrates a developing relationship between Parliament and the courts, emphasizing the principle of parliamentary sovereignty while confronting challenges posed by human rights standards. Furthermore, the paper reviews the historical context of human rights legislation in New Zealand, linking its constitutional arrangements to the roles both institutions play in the enforcement and interpretation of these standards.
