43408 (2024). Hon Jenny Salesa to the Minister of Customs: When will the Customs website be updated to include seizures of drugs up to March 2024, as per the three-month delay that Customs requires as indicated in the Minister’s response to WPQ 3883 (2024)?
Hon Casey Costello: I am advised by the New Zealand Customs Service (Customs) that the drug seizures statistics data published on the Customs website will be updated in late-July 2024. The drug seizure statistics are extracted after three months, and then prepared and checked for publication which may take two-to-three weeks.
