Annual Report 2018
Date Published:
October 2018
In this Annual Report you will read what Police planned to do and what we actually did. Highlights in the year 2017/18 included:
- Serious crime victimisations reduced by 9,643 victimisations as at 30 June 2018. The reduction is due in part to a number of preventative initiatives we have implemented.
- We concentrated our efforts on tackling organised crime and those who cause the most harm in our communities. Between January 2017 and June 2018, our National Organised Crime Group undertook 45 operations, dismantled 17 transnational organised crime groups, seized 66 firearms and restrained millions of dollars of cash and assets. These targeted enforcement activities have prevented $979 million of social harm.
- The percentage of general vetting requests processed within 20 working days has increased from 74% in 2016/17 to 99%, which is above the performance standard of 90%.
- Communities are starting to see a stronger and more visible ‘uniformed’ presence with 348 more staff in 2017/18.
- We had the largest intake of recruits in 25 years and the most ethnically diverse training wing in our history.
- We made the single biggest change to our family harm response in twenty years. The new approach helps us to make the best decisions and deliver better outcomes for the people involved and their families.
Professional Conduct Statistics (September 2018)
Date Published:

Our Business (infographic) |
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:
- The type of employee
- The type of allegation
- Combinations of the above
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.
Annual report on Police data quality 2018
Date Published:

Recording and coding of crime and incident reports by Police staff is subject to constant scrutiny. In addition to local assurance checks, key dimensions of data quality are regularly monitored at the national level, as part of a focus on ensuring consistent application of New Zealand Police’s National Recording Standard and case management process. Specific audits of crime recording and coding decisions are also undertaken as part of a comprehensive, national, Data Quality Audit Plan.
This report highlights findings from the 2017/18 Data Quality Audit Plan, covering the period from July 2017 to June 2018.
