The strategy provides clarity about what we need to focus on to achieve our goals as a Ministry. It has a strong focus on supporting people and communities.
Our purpose statement – To strengthen people’s trust in the law of Aotearoa New Zealand – guides what we do every day. Looking at this in more detail:
- Strengthen: our system is strong by international standards and we're proud of that - but we know we can do better.
- Trust: Everything comes down to people in Aotearoa New Zealand having trust that their rights are protected, that democratic institutions are strong and that they will be treated fairly if disputes arise.
- The law: It's why we're here - the law is at the heart of what we do.
- Aotearoa New Zealand: It's unique to us - it's about our people, our systems and processes, and the law of our country.
Our seven priorities are fundamentally important to the Ministry. Two of our priorities – Improve justice outcomes for Māori and Build a Ministry where all our people thrive – weave across the whole of our strategy.
Our values underpin everything we do – the actions we take, the decisions we make and the relationships we build.
