Subject: Official Information Act request - Policy on Drug Detector Dogs

     Dear New Zealand Police,
    
     I would like to request under the Official Information Act any
     policy document that the Police have on the use of drug detector
     dogs. I am particularly interested in any guidelines that the
     Police have of the use of these dogs in public schools.
    
     The reason for my request is that in overseas jurisdictions,
     notably Canada, the use of drug dogs has been declared a search and
     thus requires probable cause. I am interested to know what the
     policy for use is here.
    
     Feel free to contact me if you wish me to clarify my request. With
     regards to s12(1) of the OIA, I am a New Zealand citizen resident
     in New Zealand.
    
     Yours faithfully,
    
     Joshua Grainger
