Hon CHRIS HIPKINS (Minister of Police): There are limitations to the data that Police hold. However, that data does show that there were 84 incidents in 2018, and 303 incidents in 2021—the most recent full year on record—an increase of 260 percent. Police are taking the issue extremely seriously and investigating every incident. Since 2017, there have been 768 prosecutions for a range of ram raid - related offences, and 324 youth referrals. In answer to the second part of the member's question, the small retail crime prevention programme has undertaken 21 assessments of security needs of retailers, and a further five are expected this week. I've made it clear to the police that we expect to see much faster progress.
