updates: The New Zealand government is conducting a wide-ranging review of the country's gun laws, led by Associate Justice Minister Nicole McKee, a former gun lobbyist. The review aims to address concerns about the burdens placed on gun owners and will examine the restrictions on firing banned semi-automatic weapons. The government plans to update the law before the next election in 2026. The review has been welcomed by gun owner groups but criticized by survivors of the mosque attack. The changes implemented after the attack included the outlawing of all semi-automatic weapons, strengthening licensing requirements, and creating a firearms registry.
