Dear Johnathen
Information Request
I refer to your Official Information Act 1982 (OIA) request of 26 January 2023 in which you requested
the following information:
1.
All Vehicles used and the quantity in the Nelson Police Station.
2.
I would like it to be broken down by department, e.g Highway, PST, AOS etc. The Vehicle
used and the quantity of them.
Please refer to the attached appendix, which provides the requested information for the whole of the
Tasman District where the Nelson station is located.
The information was sourced from the Master Fleet Summary, a document that changes daily.
This can be for several reasons, such as a vehicle reaching the end of its service and being
decommissioned, replaced by a new vehicle, or transferred to a different working group.
The data contained in the appendix is an excerpt from the Master Fleet Summary taken on
8 February 2023, therefore any changes made after that date will not be reflected.
Police vehicles are allocated to a district and not to an individual Police station. Once the vehicle is
allocated to one of the 12 districts, it is deployed to meet the demands of its assigned district.
Due to the fluidity of district demand, it is not possible to provide a breakdown of vehicle
deployments to a town, city, or station level with any degree of accuracy. Likewise for this reason
the Fleet Service Group (PNHQ national fleet office) does not monitor the vehicle fleet down to a
town, city, or station level.
3.
If vehicles are moved between regions on a regular basis then please provide an average
number.
While Police will continue to disclose information relating the number of vehicles in each district and
its fleet as a whole, records on the number of vehicle movements between regions within a district are
not kept and therefore no average can be calculated. That information is therefore refused under
section 18(g) of the OIA, as the information is not held.
You have the right to seek an investigation and review by the Ombudsman of this decision.
Information about how to make a complaint is available at www.ombudsman.parliament.nz or
freephone 0800 802 602.
Yours sincerely
Inspector Brian Yanko
