Decreasing truancy among year 10 students.
This report is an update on the progress made in implementing the Police-related recommendations from the 2007 Commission of Inquiry into Police Conduct (COI). Police is responsible for implementing 47 of the COI’s 60 recommendations. In line with Cabinet requirements, an update on COI progress is provided every three months.
The report categorises Police’s progress depending upon whether recommendations have been actioned, solutions implemented (with ongoing monitoring), or fully completed. The intention is to ensure each of the Police-related recommendations are fully embedded, and are having the desired effect, by March 2017.
The risk of a terrorist attack in New Zealand is low, but Government are determined that New Zealand and New Zealanders be neither the target nor source of terrorist activities.
The designation of terrorist entities is one measure New Zealand takes to contribute to the international campaign against terrorism. The Terrorism Suppression Act 2002 (TSA) provides for a list of terrrorist entities to be established and maintained in New Zealand. Police are responsible for coordinating requests to the Prime Minister for designation as a terrorist entity.
These papers each set out the case demonstrating that each of the groups listed below meet the statutory criteria for designation as a terrorist entity within New Zealand under the TSA and were designated on 4 May 2015.
Police safety orders (PSOs) were introduced by the Domestic Violence Amendment Act 2009 and provided the New Zealand Police with the power to issue and serve PSOs from 1 July 2010. This followed the introduction of similar orders in other jurisdictions, including Australia.
PSOs are premised on early intervention and protection for victims of family violence. PSOs enable the Police to provide immediate protection to victims of family violence.
The New Zealand Police Evaluation and Research Team has carried out an evaluation of PSOs to understand and assess their effectiveness, and to inform the policy and practices surrounding their use.
