A new agreement that enables the Registrar-General, Births, Deaths and Marriages to proactively share information with New Zealand Police has come into force.
Under the agreement, the Registrar-General will be able to proactively supply to Police details relating to registered deaths, registered name changes, and non-disclosure directions.
The agreement is one of the initiatives being implemented as part of the Progressive Steps Project, which is part of the response to the Government Inquiry into the escape of Phillip Smith/Traynor.
