Independent Police Complaints Authority

Amanda Murtagh made this Official Information request to New Zealand Police

The request was successful.

From: Amanda Murtagh

Dear New Zealand Police,

Who is responsible for holding the Independent Police Complaints Authority to account when they fail to act within the Independent Police Conduct Authority Act 1988?

Where is this transparently explained to New Zealanders?

Yours faithfully,

Amanda Murtagh

Tēnā koe Amanda

Thank you for your request, received by Police on 6 August 2023.

In our view, it would have been necessary under section 14 of the OIA to transfer your request to the Ministry of Justice because the information you requested is more closely connected with its functions. However, we are aware that you have already made your request to the Ministry of Justice, and therefore we have not transferred it.

You can expect to receive a response from the Ministry of Justice in due course.

Kind regards,

Lisa MacKenzie | Advisor | Ministerial Services
Policy & Partnerships |PNHQ
