Dear New Zealand Police,
You use an ALERT which places a red flag on an individual's name which
states 'Mental Health'. A constable is able to place this alert on someone
without evidence of 'mental health' being an issue. You are able to refuse
to remove it even when provided with a medical certificate which states
that there is no mental health issue or history.

Please provide the total number of individual profiles that the police
have placed a 1M alert on.

Please provide counts for the following demographic breakdown of the
profiles that have a 1M alert:

Males under 20
Males 20-39
Males 40-59
Males 60-79
Males 80+

Females under 20
Females 20-39
Females 40-59
Females 60-79
Females 80+

Other gender identity under 20
Other gender identity 20-39
Other gender identity 40-59
Other gender identity 60-79
Other gender identity 80+

Yours faithfully,

Tess McCawe
