The Justice Minister's promising the right to protest is being protected - as the Government moves to outlaw action outside people's homes.
Its new Bill would create a new offence for engaging in a targeted and disruptive demonstration outside a residence.
It would carry a maximum fine of two-thousand dollars, or three months in jail.
Paul Goldsmith says New Zealanders value the right to protest, and also value privacy
He says they're dealing with issues targeted at individuals and personal residences.
