Victims of violent or sexual crime
Sentencing law would be changed to focus first on the needs of victims and the community, and community sentence discounts would be removed for violent offenders considered a threat.
Police and corrections officers
Pay and conditions would be reviewed, mandatory minimum sentences would apply to anyone who assaults them, and corrections officers could be equipped with body cameras and protective equipment.
Young people who offend
A Youth Justice Demerit Points system would be introduced to create a structured accountability process for youth offenders.
Gang members in prison
Gang members in prison would be moved to a dedicated gang-only facility, separated from the general prison population.
General public
More frontline police and better-resourced community policing, including Māori and Pasifika wardens and Neighbourhood Watch, are proposed to improve community safety.
