Statistics regarding prisoners and their incomes.
L. Dalton made this Official Information request to Department of Corrections
Department of Corrections did not have the information requested.
From: L. Dalton
Dear Department of Corrections,
I am looking into the driving forces behind Maori over-representation in the criminal justice system, and there seems to be a lack of public information regarding the average incomes of those with convictions that can be contrasted to those without.
If available, I request available statistics regarding the average incomes of those who have low-level convictions, and serious convictions, and if possible average incomes prior to the first imprisonable offence. I am primarily concerned with those who have served time in prisons.
Any relevant information would be greatly appreciated.
Yours faithfully,
Liam.
