Improvements to information sharing between DIA, Registrar-General, Births, Deaths and Marriages and Police

A new automated system that makes the sharing of information between the Department of Internal Affairs (DIA), the Registrar-General, Births, Deaths and Marriages and New Zealand Police more efficient and secure has gone live.

The system allows Police 24/7 access to passport and birth information, making it easier to identify a person police are taking enforcement action against. This is particularly valuable when police have arrested a person or suspect that a person has breached a court order.
