The Criminal Justice Policy Team works with Police groups and other agencies across the criminal justice sector to support legislative changes and policy relating to the administration of justice, the management of offenders, and improvements to the criminal justice system.


Prevention and Social Policy


The Prevention and Social Policy Team works with Police operational groups, government and non-government agencies across the justice and social sectors on legislative changes and policy relating to social policy issues, in particular strengthening community resilience, family violence and sexual violence, youth and child offending, improving outcomes for Māori, and improving responses for victims of crime.


National Security and International Policy


The National Security and International Team focuses on issues that affect New Zealand and the wider global community such as cybercrime and security.

It also focuses on border and cross-border issues such as international information sharing, counter terrorism, and national security.

The Transnational Organised Crime, Transport and Health Policy Team brings together policy and strategic advice on transnational organised crime (including anti-money laundering and people trafficking), road safety and wider transport issues, together with advice on mental health, alcohol, and other drugs policy.

The team works closely with the Ministry of Justice, Ministry of Transport, and the Ministry of Health as well as the Police work groups involved in these areas of our business.
