Consent Law Reform w/ Layba Zubair: 24 April, 2023

Founder of Consent Law Reform NZ and Auckland University Students’ Association Women's Rights Officer Layba Zubair is calling on the government to reassess Aotearoa’s consent laws.

The NZ Crimes Act 1961 currently only defines in what circumstances a person cannot give consent.

News and Editorial Director Jessica Hopkins spoke to Zubair about why Aotearoa needs a clear definition of consent, and their plans to make an oral submission to the Justice Committee on 4 May.
