As the gang numbers grow police say they're keeping a better check on their behaviour.
Gang numbers have climbed past 10 thousand, up from 9,270 in 2023.
Assistant Police Commissioner Paul Basham says since the Gang Act was passed, they've launched more than nine thousand charges against gang members.
He told Mike Hosking they have a laser focus on gangs.
Basham says part of the increase could be attributed to police keeping a closer eye on them.
