Speech presented by Judge Peter Boshier
This speech delivered by Judge Peter Boshier in June 2007 discusses the main steps that can be taken to prevent child abduction in New Zealand. The Care of Children Act (2004) provides the main preventative powers for abduction of children, but other preventative measures are outlined. In looking at whether further provisions are desirable for New Zealand the author focuses on the possible accession to and ratification of the Hague Convention of 1996 on Jurisdiction, Applicable Law, Recognition, Enforcement and Co-operation in respect of Parental Responsibility and Measures for the Protection of Children
