About Solomon Islands Law Reform Commission

The Solomon Islands Law Reform Commission reviews the existing laws of the Solomon Islands in accordance with references given by the Minister for Justice and Legal Affairs.

A reference can advise the Commission to review an area of the law, or direct it to review and report on specific questions or issues.

The Commission completes its work when it sends a report containing recommendations for reform of the law to the Minister for Justice and Legal Affairs. It is the role of Parliament to implement some or all of those recommendations and make changes to the law.
