Our Data – You Asked Us is a new official publication presenting Police data from 2018 in an easy-to-access and digestible way.
It demonstrates how data and evidence are important to achieving ‘Our Business’ and shows the varied work Police does to help everyone in New Zealand be safe and feel safe.
The report is based on the most frequent data requests made by members of the public under the Official Information Act and is organised according to the largest areas of demand that Police responds to.
Note: Our Data – You Asked Us was updated on June 28 with changes relating to Family Harm, Youth, and Other Areas of Interest sections.

The statistics reported in the attached documents come from the NZ Police Professional Conduct database (IAPro). These official statistics relate to reported incidents received and refer to calendar years.
These statistics will be updated quarterly (four times per year) showing the year-to date (YTD) position.
The statistics show the number of incidents that were reported in the quarters shown, regardless of when the incident actually occurred (e.g. an incident that occurred in December 2017 may not be formally reported until January 2018).
The statistics also show the number of NZ Police employees involved in the incidents (that is those that have had allegations made against them), and the number of allegations that have been made.
The statistics include incidents that have been resolved (completed), and those that are yet to be resolved (ongoing).
The statistics are in some cases divided into the 12 Police Districts of the New Zealand Police structure. In addition there are NZ Police groups (generally referred to as ‘Service Centres’) that do not come under a particular District, but are general to the organisation as a whole.
The statistics may be further grouped by:
Because an incident can involve several employees facing several allegations, which may be from several different types of conduct or actions, the figures shown cannot always be reconciled exactly.
In this issue:
New Zealand Police is regularly called upon to provide advice, input, or responses to government-ordered Commissions of Inquiry; some of which are given added status by being established as Royal Commissions.
