Police say that community response is to thank for positive youth crime outcomes. 

More than 70% of children and youths referred through the youth offender support protocol —Fast Track— haven't been re-referred. 

The protocol, created by Oranga Tamariki, finds support services to prevent youth re-offending.

Police Assistant Commissioner Investigations Paul Basham told Mike Hosking that it shows the system is working. 

He says troubled kids are getting the help they need, and crime is being prevented as a result.
