Amongst other initiatives, New Zealand's Labour Government set up a Public Advisory Committee on Disarmament and Arms Control (PACDAC) to promote greater public accountability in peace and security policy making. The process is illustrated via an examination of the New Zealand Nuclear Free Zone, Disarmament and Arms Control Act, and the apparent inconsistencies in New Zealand's anti-nuclear stance are highlighted. While PACDAC was a vital conduit for effective transmission of research and peace movement concerns into the decision-making process, the bureaucracy effectively blocked any real movement on the key issues raised. However, PACDAC may yet serve as a useful model for adoption by other countries within the region in order to facilitate this process. |
