Last night at Government House Wellington, Dame Cindy hosted a dinner for attendees of the 2023 Asia Pacific Judicial Colloquium. The Colloquium provides an opportunity for the Chief Justices and final appellate court judges of Australia, Canada, Singapore, Hong Kong, and New Zealand to come together and discuss issues of common interest. The Colloquium is hosted on a rotational basis by each of the attending nations, with New Zealand last hosting in February 2010. The theme of this year’s colloquium is: ‘”Let justice be done [as] the heavens fall”: Judging in times of disruption’.
