The report is now available. This home page will take you to it.

John van Kesteren, one of the three leaders of the team that runs the survey, alerted me in a  blog comment, adding that  the delay was not due to any government conspiracy, and crime is falling all around the world.

Very good news.

I think I also saw somewhere that Pat Mayhew, one of the UK Home Office people who intiated the survey in 1987 is working with Justice in Wellington. Perhaps we will have a well informed debate on criminal justice trends this year.
