Good morning,

 

I refer to your email of 26 November requesting information about the
admissibility of overseas convictions into pre-sentence reports in New
Zealand.

 

Because this enquiry is about the content of pre-sentence reports, I have
transferred your request to the Department of Corrections. That department
compiles the reports under section 26 of the Sentencing Act. Accordingly,
the Department of Corrections is best placed to deal with this enquiry and
will respond to your request in due course.

 

Regards,

   

  Jimmy Ellingham

Dear Jimmy,
Many thanks for your prompt response and also for requesting this information from the department of corrections. I am very interested to know from them also what their procedure is for this. However my original question still stands for this request please. I would like to know where in the law it says that either these convictions should be ignored or where they should be included.

Surely he DOC procedure on this should be based on what the law says?

Yours sincerely,

K Logan
