PUBLIC AND ADMINSTRATIVE

We offer advice on compliance issues and all exercises of statutory and public functions. We assist clients on a regular basis with statutory interpretation issues, and significant experience with the drafting of legislation and statutory rules.

 

We have advised a large number of statutory and regulatory boards on the conduct of disciplinary hearings and other decision-making processes, including the natural justice issues that arise in that arena.

 

We provide advice to our clients on issues of confidentiality, privacy and the Official Information Act. When it has proved necessary, we have liaised with the Ombudsman’s and Privacy Commissioner’s offices.

 

We have a wealth of experience in the conduct of judicial review and other public law litigation, and have assisted our clients with parliamentary proceedings (including representation at select committees and liaising with government and other Members of Parliament).

 

We provide both our public and private sector clients with advice on governance issues and the proper management of conflicts of interest.

Izard Weston has experience in procurement and tendering in the public sector.
