☎️ The number's 105, yeah, that's ten-five - NZ Police 🚨
☎️ IMPORTANT MESSAGE from NZ POLICE Asst. Commissioner ☎️
Kia Ora New Zealand,
I’m writing to you to let you and your neighbours in Hobsonville know about our new non-emergency number, 105.
The launch of 105 marks a very significant milestone in the history of New Zealand Police,
👮♂️ 👮♀️
so we made a song, featuring our staff, to help you get it stuck in your head. You might have noticed our awesome video promoting our new way to contact us for non-emergencies, 105.
Check it out here - see video attached.
Until now people either called their local Police station or they called 111 if they wanted to get hold of Police. Quite often people called 111 just because they wanted to talk to someone even if it wasn’t urgent.
So, to help keep New Zealand as safe as possible, we have introduced 105 so people know how to contact us for non-urgent situations as well. You can use 105 to report things that have already happened that don’t need urgent Police assistance.
You can call 105 from both mobile and landline phones. It’s a free nationwide service available day and night for New Zealanders and overseas visitors.
You can also go online to 105.police.govt.nz... to report:
- Theft in a public place
- Theft from a car
- Intentional property damage
- Shoplifting
- Lost property
Or to get an update on a report already made or add to an existing report.
Just remember to always call 111 in an emergency. The new 105 service is only for Police non-emergencies. Call 111 when:
- A crime is happening now – and the offenders are still there or just left
- Someone’s in danger or badly injured
- There’s a serious risk to human life or property
- You see a major public hazard, like trees blocking a road
- Any of these things are happening now or have just happened.
111 is also the number for Fire and Ambulance.
A simple rule of thumb for when to call 111 and when to call 105 is this: If it’s happening now, use 111. If it’s already happened, use 105.
Take a look at the website to find out when exactly to use 105 or for frequently asked questions, so you know what to do next time you need to contact us.

Poll: Should complete designs be shared with the public, or should the community help shape the designs from the start?
The Post recently shared an opinion piece on the Harbour Crossing and why a more democratic approach might be needed 🚗🚲👟
While most decisions sit within the political arena, many organisations—like NZTA—manage long-term projects that go beyond party lines. Politics can sometimes disrupt progress, and the next Harbour Crossing is a big decision that will affect all Aucklanders.
We’d love your thoughts: Should near-complete, shovel-ready designs be shared with the public, or should the community have a hand in shaping the designs from the start?
-
77.4% Community feedback and transparency is needed.

22.6% No. This would be impossible in practice.
Poll: 🤖 What skills do you think give a CV the ultimate edge in a robot-filled workplace?
The Reserve Bank has shared some pretty blunt advice: there’s no such thing as a “safe” job anymore 🛟😑
Robots are stepping into repetitive roles in factories, plants and warehouses. AI is taking care of the admin tasks that once filled many mid-level office jobs.
We want to know: As the world evolves, what skills do you think give a CV the ultimate edge in a robot-filled workplace?
