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 2015 may not be formally reported until January 2016).

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.

Regulatory Impact Statement - NZ Gang Intelligence Centre Information Sharing Agreement

Date Published: 
October 2017

This Regulatory Impact Statement has been prepared by NZ Police.

It provides an analysis of options to enable the New Zealand Gang Intelligence Centre (GIC) to maximise its ability to produce intelligence for participating agencies who can then make decisions to reduce gang-related harm. 

An Approved Information Sharing Agreement (AISA), made in accordance with the Privacy Act, is recommended. An AISA would enable effective, complete and efficient information sharing by all the participating agencies. It would also ensure safeguards are in place to protect the privacy of people and information.

A draft Information Sharing Agreement has been developed by the participating GIC agencies. Public consultation largely supported it. The Privacy Commissioner supports the draft Agreement and considers the proposed safeguards to protect privacy are intended to mitigate any privacy risks. If an AISA is agreed to, it will be subject to review by the Privacy Commissioner to ensure it is meeting its stated objectives.
