Auckland Transport Officer Enforcement Incentives

Kyle made this Official Information request to Auckland Transport

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

From: Kyle

Dear Auckland Transport,

1.Do you currently employ (or have employed one with in the past 5 years) an incentive mechanism for enforcement officers in any one of your enforcement remits (e.g. parking, special vehicle lane infringements etc.), WHERE the higher the number OR the higher the dollar value of infringements issued by a given officer, would THEN result in a higher monetary payout/incentive/reward/vouchers either direct/indirect for the said enforcement officer ?

2. Related to above are there any NON-monetary incentives either direct/indirect that is pro rata to the number/dollar value of the infringements issued by an enforcement officer ?

Yours faithfully,
Rob

One thing you may find interesting that up until next month (when they rise for the first time in 20 years), most stationary vehicle (eg parking) fines in NZ have been legislatively capped at amounts so low that councils enforce them at a *loss*. There is no financial incentive for councils to enforce them.

The Land Transport (Offences and Penalties) Regulations 1999 Schedule 1B, set in 2004, set the maximum fines and they haven't changed since then, not even with inflation.

This does change next week though - see: https://www.beehive.govt.nz/release/gove...
