Illustration for Lawyers and Conveyancers Act 2006

The chairperson of the Disciplinary Tribunal must give a report each year. You will find this report is about how the Tribunal did its job under this Act. The report goes to the Minister, the New Zealand Law Society, and the New Zealand Society of Conveyancers. The report must say how many decisions the Tribunal made and what those decisions were. This helps people know what the Tribunal did during the year. The report is about the Tribunal's work. The Minister of Justice must give a copy of the report to the House of Representatives. This must be done as soon as possible after the Minister gets the report. You can then find out what is in the report.
