Police fail to delete unlawful photos of young Māori, Privacy Commissioner extends deadline to mid-2025.

Police fail to meet deadline to delete unlawfully gathered photos of young Māori; large data holdings and lack of metadata hinder implementation of a solution. Privacy Commissioner extends deadline to mid-2025, requiring police to create more controls for accessing and using potentially non-compliant photos. This is the last of over a dozen directives imposed on police by the Office of the Privacy Commissioner in 2022.
