Extended Supervision Orders managed by the Ministry of Justice and The NZ Parole Board
Cherie Kara made this Official Information request to Ministry of Justice
The request was partially successful.
From: Cherie Kara
Dear Ministry of Justice,
CC Executive Director Department of Corrections
CC NZ Parole Board
Re: Parole (Extended Supervision Orders) Amendment Act 2014
On 4 February 2022, Parole (Extended Supervision Orders) Amendment Act 2014 will have been in force for 8 years. The dividing line from its predecessor, the Parole Act 2002, is that a current crime or conviction is no longer required for sentencing.
The chief executive may apply to the sentencing court for an extended supervision order in respect of an eligible offender, where the offender is a person described in section 107C(1)(c) or (d), at any time before the end of the period for which the offender is subject to release conditions under the Returning Offenders (Management and Information) Act 2015.
The purpose for the application of an Extended Supervision Order (ESO) is to monitor and manage the long-term risk posed by a high risk sex offender or a very high risk violent offender who is back in the community.
I note however that 107E the Obligation to assess eligible offenders was repealed, on 12 December 2014, by section 10 of the Parole (Extended Supervision Orders) Amendment Act 2014 (2014 No 69).
I would like to request some information about the use of the Parole (Extended Supervision Orders) Amendment Act 2014 and the Management through the Department of Corrections' Community Probation and Psychological Services, in the eight years since it came into effect.
Also Can I please have these numbers broken down into the various policing regions in New Zealand.
1. For each of the years 2014-2022, the number of Extended Supervision orders that were successful for both high risk sex offenders and very high risk violent offenders.
2. For each of the years 2014-2022, the number of Extended Supervision orders that were not successful for both high risk sex offenders and very high risk violent offenders.
3. For each of the years 2014-2022, the number of breaches made on offenders with Extended Supervision orders for both high risk sex offenders and very high risk violent offenders.
4. For each of the years 2014-2022, the number of successful recalls made on offenders with Extended Supervision orders for both high risk sex offenders and very high risk violent offenders.
5. For each of the years 2014-2022, the number of new convictions made on offenders with Extended Supervision orders for both high risk sex offenders and very high risk violent offenders.
6. For each of the years 2014-2022, the number of offenders with Extended Supervision orders whom passed away for both high risk sex offenders and very high risk violent offenders.
7. For each of the years 2014-2022, the number of offenders with Extended Supervision orders whom passed away from suicide or self harm for both high risk sex offenders and very high risk violent offenders.
8. For each of the years 2014-2022, the number of offenders with Extended Supervision orders whom have NOT received any further convictions or recalls for both high risk sex offenders and very high risk violent offenders.
I would prefer to receive an electronic response. Queries about this request will be automatically forwarded to me by the fyi.org.nz website.
With regards to s12 of the OIA, I am an NZ citizen and in NZ.
Yours faithfully,
Cherie Kara
