Te Kāhui Tātari Ture (Criminal Cases Review Commission) is an independent Crown entity that reviews potential miscarriages of justice and refers appropriate cases back to the appeal courts. Te Kāhui Tātari Ture will also undertake outreach and education and from time to time, undertake inquiries into systemic issues found during investigations. As part of our mahi, Te Kāhui reviews cases from the across the criminal justice system in Aotearoa. While Te Kāhui employs a qualified Review and Investigations team, due to the complexity and difficulty of the cases received by the Commission there will always be a need for independent, specialist advice or skills.
Given this complexity and the varied nature of the cases that come before Te Kāhui it is not financially prudent, nor viable, to employ every skill set that may be required to investigate, analyse or provide specialist advice on every case, across our small team. Additionally, as New Zealand has a small, tight knit investigative and legal community there is high likelihood of conflict(s) arising. Given these needs, Te Kāhui will need to engage external specialist advisory to support our mahi and enable us to deliver upon our statutory purpose and requirements efficiently. Please note that for clarity, we are not seeking to procure specialist advisers under section 10 of the Criminal Cases Review Act 2020.
We are seeking responses from Queen’s Counsel only as part of this RFP (Request for Proposals) process. Full details of the opportunity are detailed in the RFP document attached to this procurement opportunity (see addendum).
We expect to run this procurement process as a single step process.
