Brendan Daly

Principal and Lecturer in Canon Law
E-mail: brendan.daly@xtra.co.nz
I am a priest from the diocese of Christchurch and was ordained in 1977. I studied canon law in Ottawa in the 1980’s, completing a doctorate in canon law in 1986 with a thesis concerning infant baptism. I taught at Holy Cross College from 1987 and was rector of Holy Cross Seminary from 1995-2000. I was a lecturer in canon law at Good Shepherd College – Te Hepara Pai in 2001 and began as principal in 2002. I am a judge on the Tribunal of the Catholic Church for New Zealand and a judge on the Appeal Tribunal for Australia and New Zealand. Outside of academic life, I enjoy running, something I am well known for.
