Show Notes

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. 

More than 80% of Kiwis believe officers conduct themselves professionally. 

Former Police Negotiator Lance Burdett told Andrew Dickens it's good news, and follows changes to the organisation's leadership. 

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