Written Question
Published date: 21 Aug 2025
38652 (2025). Hon Priyanca Radhakrishnan to the Prime Minister: Did he ask the Chief Executive of the Department of Prime Minister and Cabinet if the Chief Executive had consulted Crown Law about his opinion to recommend to him that the designation of the American Proud Boys as a terrorist organisation not be renewed and if not, why not?
Rt Hon Christopher Luxon: No. The Crown Law Office provides advice on all new terrorist designations and redesignations. This advice is contained in the Statement of Case, which I had already read. I refer the member to my responses to Written Parliamentary Questions 38648 and 38678 (2025).
