Dear New Zealand Police,

As COVID-19 has had an impact on the New Zealand Police, I am interested in the following information:

Please provide any documentation related to the recruitment fitness testing being placed on hold until further notice, e.g. email chains, correspondence, meeting agendas and minutes.

Please provide any documentation related to recruit applications not being accepted for specific districts, e.g. email chains, correspondence, meeting agendas and minutes.

Please list the number of recruit wings which are still planned to go ahead during the remainder of 2020.

As required under the OIA, I am a citizen and currently residing in New Zealand.
