Hon POTO WILLIAMS: The report shows New Zealand Police are making significant progress in their efforts to tackle organised crime here in the capital. The Wellington drugs and organised crime team led a joint operation with the New Zealand Customs Service which resulted in nine search warrants being executed in the Hutt Valley. As part of their search warrants, more than 30 police officers descended on a number of properties, arresting five people and seizing firearms and associated ammunition. Police will continue to target organised crime and take guns and drugs off the streets, and that's why this Government has funded the largest police force ever, including an additional 700 with specific focus on targeting organised crime.
