The Mike Hosking Breakfast - A podcast by Newstalk ZB

Police say gaps in how they treat people are often explained by things outside of their control.   They commissioned a three-year inquiry which has revealed ongoing inequities in treatment of people based on their race, sexuality, gender, and mental health.   It's offered 40 recommendations.  Police Commissioner Andrew Coster told Mike Hosking it found there's different outcomes for people they deal with, depending on their background.   He says the report also finds many of the gaps are explained by things upstream of Police, like drug, alcohol, and mental health issues.  LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
