Talk:Ram Raid Offending and Related Measures Amendment Bill

Is this the best title?
@Andykatib: I wonder if naming this article after a parliamentary bill is a good idea. By using the title of the bill, you are confining the topic to just one government's initiative to deal with this problem. Given that New Zealand has recently undergone a change in government, I think it is speculative to think that this bill will continue to receive parliamentary support. And even if it did ultimately pass, it would not become law under the bill's name. I do think a more expansive article about Ram raid crime that discusses "Ram raid offending in New Zealand" would be useful to New Zealand readers and others, but I do not think an article about a parliamentary bill is really the vehicle to do that. - Cameron Dewe (talk) 10:41, 18 May 2024 (UTC)


 * Hi ,the ram-raiding article has a section talking about New Zealand. That could possibly be spun out and expanded into a Ram raid offending in New Zealand article. The legislation article would focus on the law itself. I think there is a place for this article given the Sixth National Government's tough on crime policies and National and ACT's previous support for the legislation. They may change its name and provisions. I do accept it was a bit premature of me to move it from draft to mainspace when it is still progressing through the parliamentary process. Happy to discuss the matter. Andykatib (talk) 14:00, 18 May 2024 (UTC)
