Who better to discuss those issues with than the commissioner for human rights? At a time when the very nature of the challenges facing the Government meant that some of our normal rights had to be put on hold, surely the human rights commissioner should have had almost open access to the seat of power. Out of curiosity I checked to see if Russia had a human rights commissioner. The Government is now conducting a trial of Lucira with Air New Zealand that will take a further three months. Not unlike expecting our human rights commissioner to wait 110 days for an audience with the Prime Minister.
