New Zealand’s gun laws will change: Ardern
New Zealand Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern has confirmed her nation’s gun laws will change in the wake of the shootings in Christchurch that killed 49 people. Addressing the media on Saturday, Ms Ardern revealed the offender was in possession of a gun licence, acquired in November 2017. Attempts to change New Zealand’s gun laws in 2005, 2012, and 2017 failed, and Ms Ardern says ‘now is the time for change’.
