Notes

The list of relevant legislation is by no means complete, but does represent Acts largely or wholly administered by the Police Department.  A more accurate list of acts administered can be gleaned from schedules of acts amended or repealed, especially in the Crimes Act 1961 and the Summary Offences Act 1981.  The Crimes Act 1961 also has an interesting schedule of United Kingdom Enactments ceasing to have effect in New Zealand (although the dates of the "ceasing" are not specified).

Also missing are the numerous amendments to the major Acts.

            [history] => 
Prior to 1987, the New Zealand Police comprised sixteen Districts, the Police College and National Headquarters. Each district was subdivided into geographical units headed by a commissioned officer, or into very small units by a non-commissioned officer, each responsible to the District Commander for the operation and conduct of the uniformed police and the civilian support staff. 



As a result of Departmental reorganising, New Zealand was divided into six regions, plus the Royal NZ Police College, and Police National Headquarters. The six  Regional Commanders were based in Auckland, Rotorua, Palmerston North, Wellington, Christchurch and Dunedin. There were twenty nine districts within these regions, decentralising into innumerable stations, community policing centres and community constables. 



Upper Hutt Station was one of the thirteen units of the Hutt District whose operations were administered by Hutt District Headquarters in Upper Hutt.  The Hutt District was one of the four Districts within Region four, whose Headquarters was in Wellington. 



On 1 July 1992, the Traffic Safety Service of the Ministry of Transport transferred officers and functions over to the Police and the Traffic Officers and Traffic Districts ceased. The Police districts were now responsible for delivering traffic services in their areas, including road safety planning and projects. 
The Wellington, Hutt and Kapiti-Mana Police Districts merged in 1997 to form the Wellington District.  The Wellington Police Station became the Wellington District Headquarters which reported directly to the Office of the Police Commissioner.
In 1998, an independent review of police administration and management structures resulted in significant changes to the organisational structure of the Police. The four regions were disestablished, the districts were reduced from 16 to 12, and support services were to be delivered by service centres.  
The Wellington District had its Headquarters in Wellington and had five distinct Areas each headed by an Inspector as its Commander. The Areas were Wellington City, Kapiti Mana, Lower Hutt, Upper Hutt and Wairarapa. The Upper Hutt Police Station was the Area Headquarters for the Upper Hutt Police Area.
