NZ First shuts down legal drug testing

From The Panel, 4:41 pm on 1 October 2019

NZ First has shot down a plan to make drug testing legal by this summer, because they say it could encourage drug use.

Police Minister Stuart Nash said earlier this year the move would save lives and hospitalisations, but he's been unable to get backing from the political party. We talk to Ross Bell from the Drug Foundation about the development.
