The importation, production and distribution of the two most prevalent drugs in NZ - Cannabis and Methamphetamine (p or ice) are a key area of concern.
Strategic and tactical support is provided by the National Drug Intelligence Bureau (NDIB), which is comprised of New Zealand Police, the NZ Customs Service and the Ministry of Health.
The NDIB records illicit drug seizures and conducts analysis on -
- drug importation and manufacturing in New Zealand
- drug trafficking, supply and distribution by organised crime groups and individuals.
The collated statistical information helps to inform police-led initiatives (police initiatives: cannabis, methamphetamine) and in turn prevent and disrupt the supply of illicit drugs to and within New Zealand.
