Subject: [EXTERNAL] Official Information request - Pseudo Driver Licences

CAUTION: This email originated from outside the New Zealand Police Network. DO NOT click links or open attachments unless you recognise the sender and are assured that the content is safe.

Dear New Zealand Police,
I am writing to enquire about the enabling legislation that allows NZ Police to issue pseudo driver licences. What IS the enabling legislation that gives NZ Police the power/authority to issue pseudo driver licences? Does any enabling legislation actually exist that gives NZ Police the power/authority to issue pseudo driver licences? If there is NO enabling legislation, from where does NZ Police obtain the power/authority to issue pseudo driver licences?

Yours faithfully,

Geoff. Waterhouse
