11 December 2020 UC statement about the review responding to complaints about published article Holding a Pen in One Hand, Gripping a Gun in the Other. Earlier this year, the University of Canterbury (UC) received four formal complaints, from academics and universities, which challenged claims in a published article co-authored by UC Professor Anne-Marie Brady titled In response to these complaints, UC initiated a review process in accordance with our Critic & Conscience of Society and Academic Freedom Principles and Policy and sought advice from two qualified external advisors as part of this process. The finding of the review is that Professor Brady and her co-authors met the responsibilities of UC’s policy and the Education Act 1989. The committee noted that Professor Brady’s work was based on a lengthy period of research and cites extensively from other sources. However, given that it was intended for parliamentary submission and succinct, they recommended that some phrases could be amended to provide clarity.
