Hon POTO WILLIAMS (Minister of Police): Yes, in the context my statement was made. There are a number of points I would like to confirm to the member in regards to police response times. Response times for emergencies have remained stable, with the median response time in urban areas around eight minutes over the past four years. The response times significantly fluctuate during the year and across New Zealand, and tend to be higher over the summer period. There have been unprecedented pressures on the police due to multiple COVID outbreaks, which have had a significant impact on police resourcing and response times. As a Government, we are committed to support police, and that's why we have invested significantly in police resourcing.
