Audit of police weaponry

Alex Harris made this Official Information request to New Zealand Police

The request was successful.

From: Alex Harris

Dear New Zealand Police,

The New Zealand Police are equipped with a variety of weapons to protect public safety, including firearms, tasers, tear gas and pepper spray. I would like to request the following information under the OIA:

* how often is the NZ police arsenal inventoried or audited, and when was the last inventory performed?
* A list of all firearms, tasers, other weapons and protective equipment (stab-proof / bullet proof vests, gas masks etc) which were unaccounted for in the last audit.

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,

Alex Harris
