Expert Voices: Problem-Solving Courts in New Zealand

Following the Independent Sentencing Review, the Ministry of Justice is currently seeking to expand the number of problem-solving courts (branded Intensive Supervision Courts) in England and Wales. As part of our work to support these initiatives, we were delighted to host this Expert Voices seminar looking at the development and growth of these courts in New Zealand. New Zealand has numerous problem-solving courts which deal with matters such as addiction, homelessness, family violence, mental health, and youth offending. Each of these courts embrace therapeutic justice principles and seek to address underlying causes of offending. This event was chaired by our Deputy Director, Vicki Mulligan, and we were joined by experts: -Judge Ida Malosi: Judge Malosi is the Acting-Chief Judge of the District Court of New Zealand and Principal Youth Court Judge. In 2010, Judge Malosi established the Pasifika Courts in Auckland, which are monitoring courts for young offenders of Pacific Island heritage. Her Honour has also been instrumental in launching the Family Court, Family Violence Court, and Alcohol and Other Drug Treatment Court in Samoa. More recently, Judge Malosi has overseen the implementation of Te Ao Mārama, a new vision for the District Court of New Zealand which seeks to integrate best practices features from problem-solving courts into the mainstream courts. -Oliver Fredrickson: Oliver Fredrickson is a New Zealand criminal lawyer who is currently completing a fellowship at the Centre for Justice Innovation. Previously, he worked as a judicial assistant for Chief District Court Judge Heemi Taumaunu, during which he visited problem-solving courts across the country and played an important role in the design and development of Te Ao Mārama.
