The Understanding Policing Delivery project is investigating how Ngā Pirihimana o Aotearoa New Zealand Police deliver their services to various communities across New Zealand. Furthermore, it is examining whether evidence of systemic bias existed in three key areas:
-
who police stop and how they engage,
-
decision-making around the use-of-force, and
-
decision-making around prosecutions.
In this talk, Dr Paul Brown will describe components of the research methodology and results of the prosecution study in Phase 1 of the Understanding Policing Delivery project. He will also briefly overview the work surrounding quality and use of police data.
