Statistics - Prisoners by nationality

Cody C made this Official Information request to Department of Corrections

The request was successful.

From: Cody C

Dear Department of Corrections,

I am requesting the number of prisoners, grouped firstly by nationality, then secondly by type of crime (i.e. violent, dishonesty, sexual, etc) as of end-of-year 2016 in accordance with the Official Information Act 1982.

Where this information would be so specific so as to identify an offender (i.e. only having one person of a specific nationality), please group this into a separate category of withheld nationalities, followed by type of crime.

For the purposes of the Act, I am a New Zealand citizen and residing in New Zealand at the time of making this request. You generally have 20 working days to respond to this notice, as required by law. Your response will be published publicly on the fyi.org.nz website.

Yours faithfully,

Cody C
