Casey Costello: Associate Police Minister denies claims that new organised crime plan is a holiday headline

The Associate Police Minister's pushing back on claims her new organised crime plan is purely a holiday headline.  The newly released Transnational, Serious and Organised Crime Strategy aims to make New Zealand the hardest place for criminals to do business. Initiatives include options for setting up a new dedicated department, and developing cross-agency data sharing.  Casey Costello says it's not a rehash of Labour's 2007 plan, which was within Police and petered out without results.  She says this is a long term sustainable model.  LISTEN ABOVESee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
