Casey Costello: Associate Police Minister on the report into organised crime in New Zealand

New Zealand faces significant obstacles to take down organised crime groups.  A ministerial advisory group's first report reveals a sobering reality the country is losing the fight, and claims bold changes are needed.  It says a significant spike in methamphetamine use last year was dire.  Associate Police Minister Casey Costello told Andrew Dickens a series of reports will provide practical advice over the next six months.  She says there will be specific actions released each month - including how agencies could work more closely together and breaking down barriers about information sharing.  LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
