Drug and Substance Checking Legislation Bill (No 2)
Bills are proposals to make a new law or to change an existing one. Only Parliament can pass a bill. Each bill goes through several stages, giving MPs and the public the chance to have their say.
The single broad policy implemented by the amendments in this omnibus bill is to try to minimise drug and substance harm by allowing drug and substance checking services to operate legally in New Zealand.
