Appendix Three: NZ Police data used in this report
Police provided data on proceedings for all and under the age of 18. We note that there are differences in the age of criminal responsibility, and appropriate police response, for tamariki aged 10–13 and rangatahi aged 14–17. NZ Police publishes aggregated information about proceedings at policedata.nz. This is drawn from the same data analysed here at a more detailed level.
