Most city crematoria are owned and operated by the local council; there is a growing trend of trusts and funeral homes taking on the operation of crematoria within New Zealand. There is a national organisation for these facilities but data is provided through the Ministry of Health. Within the funeral industry it is acknowledged that 75% of deaths are cremated and this is on the increase due to the diverse culture.
