NZ Police Breach of Privacy Act

Ed Whakatihi made this Official Information request to Privacy Commissioner

This request has an unknown status. We're waiting for Ed Whakatihi to read recent responses and update the status.

From: Ed Whakatihi

Dear Privacy Commissioner,

As reported by RNZ on the 8/9/22 the NZ Police had breached the Privacy Act in regards to photos taken of Maori Youth over a 10yr Period.

Were the NZ Police as an organization fined or financial penalized for the Breach as per this Section of the Privacy Act-

Offence to fail to notify Commissioner
(1)
An agency that, without reasonable excuse, fails to notify the Commissioner of a notifiable privacy breach under section 114 commits an offence and is liable on conviction to a fine not exceeding $10,000.

If No Why Not?

Had the NZ Police Notified the Privacy Commissioner of the breach?

If so what was the date of the notification?

Yours faithfully,

Ed Whakatihi
