There are concerns about a lack of consultation over proposed changes to the way shooting ranges and non-pistol clubs are regulated.
It would involve changing part six of the Arms Act, which was strengthened in the wake of the 2019 Christchurch mosque attacks when it was revealed the terrorist behind it had practiced at an Otago rifle club.
Submissions on the change were due late last week, but the Police Association was not consulted.
The Federation of Islamic Associations was invited to submit, but is concerned that it was not an open consultation process, and the time frame was just 14 days.
