Now, Transparency International New Zealand contributes to global monitoring tools, such as the Anti-Corruption Pledge Tracker, the Global Defence Anti-corruption Index and the Exporting Corruption Report. Many of the recommendations to improve the integrity of our national systems have been implemented. We have had positive influences on policy and practice through our monitoring activities, our submissions, advocacy and programmes. Our years of advocacy for a Code of Conduct for parliament have been successful, with a Code of Conduct now in place. We also advocated for greater transparency of the lobbying of parliamentarians: Ministerial diaries are now published. 

We have put forward evidenced arguments for stronger legal protection and better organisational culture to support people to speak up about wrongdoing. An amended law is now with Parliament. We advocated for a refocusing of the public service to be more accountable and transparent. These values form part of the Public Service Act 2020.

We are also innovative, developing the world’s first Financial Integrity System Assessment.

We are non-partisan, non-sectarian, and objective. In our conduct, we are guided by the principles of the Human Rights Act and the Treaty of Waitangi. In our statements and publications, all positions taken by Transparency International New Zealand are based on sound, objective, professional analysis and high standards of research.
