The original introduction of Speed Cameras to New Zealand in 1993 was advocated by the Australian Victoria State police and their brothers-in-arms at advocating the most rigid and severe speed limit enforcement - the Monash University Accident Research Centre.

The following request was made to the New Zealand Minister of Transport under the Official Information Act:

With regard to supposed benefits of LTSA's rigid enforcement policies, please supply ... a list of LTSA documentation and publications relevant to evaluating these policies as applied in NZ.

This table was supplied in response:

Apart from local bureaucrats and marketing, accountancy and management consultancy firms the ONLY independent reviews of the LTSA speed policies have been their original advocates.

This is how such catastrophic policy failures have been allowed to continue and develop.
