Figures about the witness protection programme

Natasha Frost made this Official Information request to Ministry of Justice

The request was partially successful.

From: Natasha Frost

Dear Ministry of Justice,

I am writing to request the following information about the witness protection programme:

- How much did the programme cost to run in 2015?
- How many people were directly affected by the programme?
- Does the Ministry of Justice give people, when occasion presents itself, new identities?
- Does this extend to new homes or jobs?
- If so, how many people have been given these new identities?
- What other alternatives does the programme offer?

Yours faithfully,

Natasha Frost

Good morning Natasha,

Thank you for your request. The Ministry of Justice does not hold the information you seek, so I have transferred your request to the New Zealand Police. Officials from that department will respond in due time.

Kind regards,

Sophie Warren
Advisor | Ministry of Justice
