Description

The cartoon shows the head of Minister of Justice Judith Collins, as a cash register with coins spilling out; the minister represents 'fiscal restraint'. A newspaper nearby reads 'Collins defends judge's golden handshake'. Refers to the news that acting Attorney-General Judith Collins has defended her decision to accept the resignation of former Supreme Court judge Bill Wilson with a golden handshake. Mr Wilson's resignation was announced last month following complaints about an alleged conflict of interest regarding a case he was involved in. A judicial conduct panel was set up for the first time in New Zealand to hear the complaints, but inquiries were cut short by the resignation. The handshake is calculated at $475,000.
