The Green Party has called for gun law reform for quite some time. Regulating gun violence falls within the kaupapa of the Green Party as one of our charter values is non-violence. Our vision of a justice system for Aotearoa New Zealand is one which values social responsibility, appropriate decision-making, and non-violent conflict resolution. These things should be paramount. In this system disputes are solved quickly and fairly, everyone is entitled to justice, no one is judged without a fair hearing, everyone is given a reasonable chance to atone for past wrongs and reintegrate into society, and everybody is treated with respect. In this system the law benefits everyone equitably. We get that balance right so that people can be safe and we can uphold people's access to the law.
