Costs to NZ police for impounded vehicles

Bruce made this Official Information request to New Zealand Police

This request has an unknown status. We're waiting for Bruce to read a recent response and update the status.

From: Bruce

Dear New Zealand Police,

I request all information held by NZ Police that relates to the costs paid to all private towing or storage sites by NZ Police for impounded vehicles for the calendar year 2024.

Ideally, the breakdown of costs would show a breakdown in figures for each Police district. Additionally, I would hope to receive figures that show how many impounded vehicles were not reclaimed by the registered owner, the average length of impound, and the longest a vehicle was impounded.

Yours faithfully,

Bruce
