ACTION PLAN POORLY WRITTEN BUT NOT DISCRIMINATORY – IPCA
The Independent Police Conduct Authority has found that a Counties Manukau CIB Action Plan relating to unlicenced drivers did not intend that Maori drivers be given preferential treatment.
On 16 June 2015, ONE News reported that South Auckland Police officers had been briefed not to ticket unlicenced Maori drivers, and to instead refer them to local Iwi and a community support panel.
After receiving a number of complaints that this Police document was “racist” and “discriminatory”, the Authority conducted an independent investigation.
