He later served as the Chief Justice of the Cook Islands and the President of the Court of Appeal of Fiji from 1982 until 1988. In 1976 the Auckland Star quoted Justice Graham Speight as saying, in relation to the immigration of Pacific Islanders to New Zealand, ‘one must have the gravest anxiety as to the placement of these unsophisticated people in an environment which they are totally unfitted to cope with.’ Which has now come to be seen as perpetuating anti-Pacific Islander racism and xenophobia during the period of the dawn raids. In the 1983 New Year Honours, Speight was appointed a Knight Bachelor, in recognition of his service as a High Court judge. Speight died in Auckland on 17 July 2008, at the age of 86. He was survived by his wife, son and five grandchildren.
