New Zealand underwent its’s first cycle of self-assessment under the UN Convention Against Corruption (UNCAC) “Implementation Review Mechanism”, which began in July 2016. The executive summary of the reviewers’ findings, including their recommendations, is publicly available on the UN Office on Drugs and Crime’s website. In 2018, New Zealand was one of Kenya’s reviewers for the second cycle of assessment. Our second cycle review is currently scheduled to take place in 2020/2021.
