Overview: This paper discusses the role of public inquiries as an instrument of public policy-making in New Zealand, using mental health as a case study. The main part of the paper analyses the processes and outcomes of five general inquiries into the state of New Zealand's mental health services that were held between 1858 and 1996. The paper concludes that public inquiries have helped shape New Zealand's mental health policy, both directly and indirectly, at different stages of evolution.
