A bad year for P dealers

2010 was a year P dealers would rather forget. A record 30.4 kilograms of P, worth an estimated $30 million, were seized by Police and Customs. This is up 46 per cent on 2009.

National has made tackling P a priority. Our multi-pronged Methamphetamine Action Plan is paying off by greatly strengthening the police’s arsenal in the fight against P.

These seizures are testament to the vigilance, expertise, and experience of our frontline police and customs officers. Their hard work in reducing the amount of P available weakens the criminal gangs that sell the drug. It reduces crime in our communities, making our neighbourhoods safer for hard-working Kiwi families.
