A 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 of this law, called section 121, was about how a special advocate could talk to other people. This section was repealed, which means it is no longer part of the law, as of 28 November 2023, by section 35 of the Security Information in Proceedings Act.
