Hamilton Retail Crime
Joshua Rogers 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: Joshua Rogers
Dear New Zealand Police,
Please provide any evidence, analysis or work done by the Hamilton Police to assess the need for a retail crime unit or work related to investigating and prosecution of retail offenders in Hamilton.
I’m specifically looking at if Hamilton Police have analysed the retail crime trends in Hamilton and what they are doing to work on it.
Please provide any correspondence to and from the prevention team sergeant/managers, Bruce Bird and any other unit associated with the management of retail crime in the last 24 months.
Yours faithfully,
Joshua Rogers
