Public trust and confidence in New Zealand Police is recovering. 

The latest Crime and Victims Survey shows its risen to 69% – a 2% rise in the year to October 2024.

He says new Police Commissioner Richard Chambers has front-line experience and is making alternations that have a flow-on effect to officers.
