Illustration for Overseas Investment Act 2005

A special law called the Overseas Investment Act 2005 has a part about national security and public order risks. You can find information about this law on the New Zealand legislation website. A section in this law was about the role of special advocates, but it is no longer part of the law. This section was removed from the law on 28 November 2023 by another law called the Security Information in Proceedings (Repeals and Amendments) Act 2022, which you can find more information about by following the link to section 35.
