Abstract
On 1st September, 1995 New Zealand acquired a specific money‐laundering provision in its criminal code: s. 257A Crimes Act 1961. As is often the case with new legislation, s. 257A made its way onto the statute books without fanfare and has been relatively unused by Crown prosecutors. The recently reported decision of R v Liava'a will hopefully generate interest among New Zealand law enforcement authorities and Crown prosecutors.

Abstract
‘People have been hiding wealth ever since the notion of value dawned in the mind of man. As society and the instruments of society have become more sophisticated, so have the process of hiding wealth. While a hole in the ground might have well served our ancestors, today to achieve the same degree of “invisibility” a panoply of legal and business devices will often be employed to achieve the same result.’ For those involved in crime which is premeditated, the accumulation and management of wealth is the driving motive.

Abstract
This chapter reflectively explores the idea of doing art-based research (ABR) through poetic methods for studying the experience of learning in higher education. Taking some literature on faculty development to exemplify different ways of experiencing learning, this chapter serves as a counterpoint to researching experiences of learning from a phenomenological approach. The fundamental reasoning for this is that the basic epistemological assumptions in phenomenology would limit our understanding of experiences of learning and thus, other methodological options would be worth exploring. To that end, this chapter elaborates on the relationship between knowledge production, speech and experience, all circling around the notions of research method and construction. Here, the aim is to reflect upon an understanding of research that is aligned with a dialogical and relational conceptualization of the experience of learning. Finally, an argument will be outlined that suggests conducting research as an experience. Taking from Dewey, Kvale, Law, Scheurich, Talmy and others, this exploration will present the idea of studying the experiences of learning by way of producing/devising experiences through arts. With the notion of art as experience from Dewey, the argument goes to ABR in a general sense, and poetry in particular, as a sound and coherent alternative way of researching learning as an experience. Thus, this chapter explores the possible theoretical-methodological contributions of thinking about and doing research understood as an experience through art.

Chapter Summary
The purpose of this chapter is to enable interviewers to understand how they can elicit interviewee-generated data that are not ‘muddied’ by the researcher. The chapter has three main components. First, we discuss the authorship of data and illustrate how questions may unwittingly affect this authorship. Second, we outline the problem with ‘leading’ questions and introduce three features of leading questions that are relevant to researchers from different research epistemologies. Third, we introduce the ‘cleanness rating’, which is a way to categorise how questions are used in an interview according to the extent to which they are leading or ‘clean’. We conclude with the difference this can make for researchers, including enhancing the capacity for interviewers to reflect on their practice and making their role in the generation of interview data more transparent.
