Next up in the AMA chair is the chap driving the flag selection process.

Professor John Burrows, ONZM, QC is a law lecturer, author, former member of the Law Commission, co-chairman of the Panel which reviewed the New Zealand constitution in 2012 and now, in his most public role – or at least the one most likely to require a crash helmet – chairman of the Flag Consideration Panel.

Click the NBR Radio box above or below to listen to Owen Poland put your questions to Prof Burrows (and scroll down to see questions).

The flag panel boss defends himself against some robust reader criticism of the sometimes circus-like flag selection process, debunks a Herald journalist's conspiracy theory, and gives his verdict on media converage to date.
