- **Event Description**: About this EventA legal order without a codified constitution: The New Zealand experimentNew Zealand is one of the few countries that does not have a codified constitution. Among those few countries with uncodified constitutions, it is the only one with a founding treaty and an ongoing tradition of customary law. The Chief Justice will explore the history of New Zealand’s constitutional settlement—which, given its unique character, could be described as a constitutional experiment. She will discuss how it operates in the legal sphere, and the forces at work in its continuing evolution. Along the way she will note points of contrast with the Australian experience.About the speakerThe Rt Hon Dame Helen Winkelmann was sworn in as New Zealand’s 13th Chief Justice on 14 March 2019. She is the second Chief Justice since the Supreme Court of New Zealand was established in 2004. Prior to her appointment to the judiciary, Chief Justice Winkelmann was a partner in the law firm now known as DLA Piper, and after that practised at the independent Bar in commercial law and medico-legal litigation. She was appointed as a High Court Judge in 2004, and as Chief High Court Judge in 2010. She was appointed to the Court of Appeal in 2015, before being appointed to the Supreme Court in 2018. Her Honour is a graduate of the University of Auckland.----------------------------------------Wednesday 22 April 2026Time: 5.30-6.45pm AEDT (registration from 5pm, cocktail reception to follow lecture)Venue: Banco Court, Supreme Court of NSW (184 Phillip Street, Sydney)----------------------------------------About the George Winterton Memorial LectureThe George Winterton Memorial Lecture was established to commemorate the outstanding and lasting contribution of Professor George Winterton to constitutional law scholarship and our understanding of constitutional law.
