SAS TRUST: DECEMBER WEBINAR
Using Behavioural Insights to Inform Operations

About the webinar

The Ministry of Justice collects court imposed fines, reparations to victims and infringements on behalf of local authorities and the Police. Over half a million New Zealanders owe fines and total Collections debt is around $600m or $122 for every person in NZ. 

We have implemented a number of behavioural insights trials, aimed to improve the effectiveness of letters sent to people who had failed to pay their fine. Based on findings from behavioural science on what works to increase paying behaviour, changes were made to existing fines letters. The new letters were tested through randomised controlled trials and other methods. This presentation will cover the behavioural insights, RCTs and analysis approaches used.
