Allegations of misconduct

Abstract

This is part of a set of five mini cases giving notes to prompt discussion around aspects of misconduct in New Zealand Police. Each is entirely fictional, although based on real situations - 2A Inappropriate relationship (3 pages). - 2B Misuse of Police information (4 pages). - 2C Sexual misconduct (3 pages). - 2D Excessive use of force (4 pages), 2E Misuse of police information (sworn and non-sworn staff) (4 pages). These cases have been designed to support discussion of the new Code of Conduct for New Zealand Police but also could be used to discuss ethical issues applicable to the wider public sector. Related cases are Case reference no 412-022-1, and Case reference no 412-022-4
