The Prime Minister, Police Commissioner and Police Minister have all been forced to hose down concerns over an internal police memo directing officers not to investigate crimes under a certain value. The nationwide internal directive, made public by RNZ, set the cut off for petrol drive off at $150, $500 for shoplifting and $1000 for fraud, including online scams. The instruction was to file those cases regardless of lines of inquiry or solvability. Police Minister Mark Mitchell spoke to Lisa Owen.

"We expect our police to tackle crime everywhere," that said by Prime Minister Christopher Luxon as he and the Police Commissioner moved to reassure the public about a new police directive that's sparked confusion and concern. The directive told officers not to investigate allegations of shoplifting below $500. While petrol drive offs below $150 and online scams under $1000 would also not be investigated. Finn Blackwell reports.

The Police Commissioner has stepped in and canned a controversial directive telling officers not to investigate retail crimes below certain monetary thresholds. Retail Crime Group chair Sunny Kaushal spoke to Ingrid Hipkiss.

Only a few weeks after he had reportedly been in contention for the country’s top police job, deputy Police Commissioner Jevon McSkimming was suspended and put on leave.

That was – until last week, when McSkimming resigned after allegations surfaced of “objectionable material” being found on his work computer.
