A

You are not required to name your CHIS in the warrant. Good practice is to register them under a code number.

Q

What is a controlled delivery?

A

There are two options:

Option 1: “Clean controlled delivery” - where no drugs are left within the consignment. This eliminates any risk of losing the drugs and gives greater freedom in organising the surveillance. Only importation and/or conspiracy charges are likely to be filed.

Option 2: Leave an amount of the drug within the consignment to enable the option of charging ‘possession for supply’ and also provides the availability of emergency powers if the drugs move to a person or place that aren’t listed on the search warrant.

42
Q

In relation to importing, when is someone liable and when does liability cease?

Criminal liability arises as soon as the drugs cross NZ boarder, and an importer may therefore be convicted under S6(1)(a) even if the drugs are intercepted by customs and never reach the addressee.
