Jolly good show..

Finding out someone's criminal history could soon be as easy as clicking a button, under major changes to improve public access to court documents.
Justice Minister Judith Collins told the Sunday Star-Times the current system, where people often have to apply in writing to the courts for access to information, is "completely insane".
She wants all decisions online once the courts have completed a move to an electronic operating model next year. The documents would effectively act as a public register of criminals and improve public safety, she said.
It would also make the court process more open.

Yes, It is also time consuming to have to make an application for them. I also wonder if this might make people think twice before committing a crime. When your neighbours and potential employees can now go look you up.
