  1. whether the definition of “private communication” in the legislation governing the GCSB is satisfactory; and

  2. any additional matters that arise during the review as agreed by the Acting Attorney-General and notified in
    writing in the New Zealand Gazette.

Under section 22(3)(b) of the Act, the Acting Attorney-General specifies that, when determining how to conduct
the review, the reviewers will take into account:

  1. the need to ensure that a wide range of members of the public have the opportunity to express their views
    on issues relating to the review;

  2. the need for the law to provide clear and easily understandable parameters of operation;

  3. the Law Commission’s work on whether current court processes are sufficient for dealing with classified and
    security sensitive information;

  4. previous relevant reviews and progress towards implementing their recommendations;

  5. relevant overseas reviews to identify best practice in areas relevant to this review, including oversight
    arrangements; and

  6. that traditionally, signals and human intelligence have been carried out separately and the Government does
    not intend to consider merging those functions within a single agency.

Hon AMY ADAMS, Acting Attorney-General.
