3906 (2024). Hon Jenny Salesa to the Minister of Customs: What impact, if any, will the 6.5% cuts at New Zealand Customs Service have on the capabilities and resourcing of Customs to address illicit drugs, if any, arriving at New Zealand’s borders?

Hon Casey Costello: I am advised that the New Zealand Customs Service is identifying savings to baseline funding that will not impact the delivery of front line services.
