On Wednesday 2 March Police removed a range of camping and personal property from the northern end of Molesworth and Hill streets and some nearby private properties.
The property was taken to a holding area where Health Protection Officers from Porirua City Council inspected it for hazards.
The property was found to be contaminated with human waste, dirt and hay, and was classified as a health nuisance under Section 29 of the Health Act 1956.
Police have since destroyed the property, as directed by the Council.
Other property from the protest was removed by Wellington City Council and Parliamentary Security.
