High-level outcomes expected from the implementation of NPTs in New Zealand are: a reduction in crime and crash, the community feeling safer, and an increase in levels of trust and confidence in, and satisfaction with the police. Whilst it is intended that NPTs tailor their approach to be appropriate for the communities they are working within, a number of key activities are expected: Be active and visible in communities; Engage with communities to understand what the crime and safety priorities are within the community; and, Solve these problems by working with the community and in partnership with other agencies. The evaluation of NPTs consists of two phases: formative, which focuses on the development and establishment of NPTs; and process-outcomes, which will focus on how the teams are operating and how effective they are. This report is a summary of findings from formative evaluation of NPTs in Counties Manukau District. Details: Wellington, New Zealand: New Zealand Police, 2011. 23p.
