Una Jagose

Una Jagose KC is New Zealand's Solicitor-General and King's Counsel, appointed in February and June 2016 respectively.

Her parents were both medical professionals who had emigrated to New Zealand: her father was a Parsi doctor from India and her mother a nurse from Ireland.

She was appointed acting director of the Government Communications Security Bureau in 2015, then as the Solicitor-General in February 2016 and as a Queen's Counsel in June 2016.

The Attorney-General Judith Collins declined to write a foreward to the guiding document, stating that the Solicitor-General issued prosecution guidelines independently while expressing disagreement with the advice and wording.

[7] Many survivors had called upon Jagose to resign, alleging that in cases brought against the Crown by survivor claimants she was personally complicit in withholding evidence from the police, using aggressive and re-traumatising lines of questioning, and suggesting the use of psychological stress against claimants as a legal strategy.
