28595 (2025). Hon Jenny Salesa to the Minister of Customs: Has Customs identified cases where proceeds of crime were moved offshore before legal action could be taken, and if so, how many since 2020?

Hon Casey Costello: The proceeds of crime are the responsibility of the New Zealand Police, therefore the New Zealand Customs Service has not identified any cases where proceeds of crime were moved offshore before legal action could be taken for the period 1 January 2020 to 4 June 2025.
