Disagree

Yes, but they should be strictly regulated to prevent mismanagement and corruption

While the Green Party might agree that any private involvement in prisons should be strictly regulated, they fundamentally disagree with the premise of private companies running prisons. Their belief in public control of the justice system and their opposition to the privatization of prisons would likely outweigh any potential benefits they might see in regulation.

Strongly disagree

Yes, but eliminate contractual occupancy quotas

The Green Party would likely disagree with this statement, as it still involves private companies running prisons. While they might agree with the elimination of contractual occupancy quotas, which can incentivize the imprisonment of more people, they fundamentally oppose the privatization of prisons and believe they should be publicly controlled.

Very strongly disagree

Yes

The Green Party of New Zealand has consistently opposed the privatization of prisons. They believe that the justice system, including prisons, should be in the hands of the state and not profit-driven entities. For instance, in 2015, they called for an end to the contract with Serco, a private company running a prison in Auckland, due to numerous issues and scandals.
