Complaints about police conduct and outcomes

Ti Lamusse made this Official Information request to New Zealand Police

Response to this request is long overdue. By law New Zealand Police should have responded by now (details and exceptions). The requester can complain to the Ombudsman.

From: Ti Lamusse

Dear NZ Police,

Please provide me with the following information:

-The total number of complaints made about Police conduct, broken down by year as far back as records permit.
-The total number of complaints made about Police conduct that were investigated by the IPCA, broken down by year as far back as records permit.
-The total number of complaints made about Police conduct that were investigated by the New Zealand Police, broken down by year as far back as records permit.
-The totals of each type of outcome of complaints, broken down by year (i.e. complaint upheld/not upheld, officer’s actions were justified)

Please provide me with this information in an excel document.

Yours,

Ti Lamusse

Good afternoon

 

I’ve checked our system and it appears that although this was received by
NZ Police on 1 April, it was not forwarded on to the correct team to
complete. I have now logged your request and it is underway. It is, as you
note, already late and I have asked the team working on it to prioritise
it accordingly and get a response back to you as soon as possible.

 

This is one of a number of requests to experience this issue and we have
changed the way requests from FYI.org come into NZ Police to ensure this
does not happen again.

 

Ngâ mihi
