A crack down on persistent young offenders. New Ministry of Justice data shows a 19% increase in children and young people receiving orders or adult sentences in 2024, compared to the previous year. There's a 16% rise for Māori tamariki and rangatahi. Blue Light CEO Brendon Crompton told Ryan Bridge these are children who have likely gone through the youth system and have continued to offend.
