Royal Commissions
Part of the McGuinness Institute’s CivicsNZ project
Table 1 provides a list of all Royal Commissions established in New Zealand. The McGuinness Institute found that there is no singular platform that holds a comprehensive collection of historical Royal Commissions; this page and Working Paper 2020/10 – A List of Royal Commissions since 1868 aim to fill in this gap. We have been unable to find a copy of some commissions’ reports; in these cases we have simply added some evidence that shows the commission existed. If you have or know where we could find a copy of any of these reports, please let us know at enquiries@mcguinnessinstitute.org. This page is up to date as at 15 March 2022.
