Includes bibliographical references and index.

A Practical Guide to Criminal Procedure in New Zealand is designed to be a convenient, practical and portable handbook for anyone working with the new criminal procedure legislation, and associated rules and regulations. The content of this book is composed of the recently passed Criminal Procedure Act 2011, in addition to the accompanying Regulations and Rules. The Criminal Procedure Act 2011 represents the most significant reform of criminal procedure in over 50 years and implementation will require fundamental changes to systems for managing criminal proceedings in the courts. Its immediate benefits will be significant. However, the new Act will also enable, and is part of, a wider set of reforms that over the next three years will help build a more resilient court system, speed up case disposal rates, improve customer service and enhance the sector's capability to respond to future demands. This book will include the new legislation, regulations and rules - annotated by a leading expert in the field so as to provide maximum usability to practitioners grappling with the new system.
