The party's drugs policy, launched by National leader Judith Collins in Hawke's Bay on Monday, includes a promised $50 million in contestable funding for community-based harm reduction programmes, and more drug dogs at airport and ports to stop drugs entering the country.
“We can either decide that we’re going to lose the war, or we’re going to decide to take it seriously,” Collins said.
“The use of this drug tears families apart, fuels violence, enriches criminals and destroys lives. We cannot tolerate the continued misery this drug causes, which leads to rising levels of violence and poverty, and widespread social harm.”

The temporary cycle way will be located on Captain Scott Road in Glen Eden, and funded by NZ Transport Agency Innovating Streets Fund.
The cycling path will complete the route from Ceramco Park and Kaurilands Domain to the town centre, providing access to the town centre and train station for residents along that corridor.
It will also make it safer for students going to Glen Eden Intermediate and Primary Schools.
Waitākere Ranges Local Board chair Greg Presland said that the cycleway will provide people with an alternative to using cars in the area as well as calming traffic on Captain Scott Road.
“What this pop-up cycleway will do is provide people who want to access the train station or town centre with the opportunity to do so without having to use their car, or feel unsafe on a bike with cars speeding past them,” he said.
“Residents in the area frequently report fast vehicle speeds and safety concerns on this stretch of road - particularly for school children, and there have been a number of crashes on the road in the last five years.”

Consumer NZ spokesperson Jessica Wilson said the chain was prominently displaying its “Clubcard price” as the main price, while the regular price was in much smaller font and easier to miss.
Until recently, checkout operators could scan a temporary Clubcard for customers without one, which would allow all shoppers to access the loyalty scheme’s discounts. But that has since been stopped.
A Foodstuffs spokeswoman said it had removed temporary Clubcards from checkout counters after “lots of communication” with customers about the loyalty programme.
The spokeswoman disagreed with Consumer NZ’s claims and said it failed to point out that other retailers offered loyalty programmes.

Education Minister Chris Hipkins announced a raft of temporary changes to NCEA for Auckland students, who have missed an extra two a half weeks of school compared to pupils in the rest of the country.
The changes build on the system of bonus credits previously announced for all students.
Auckland teenagers will now earn one bonus credit for every four credits they achieve, up to a maximum of 16 bonus credits at level 1, and 12 at levels 2 and 3.
In the rest of the country, students will get one credit for every five they earn, up to a maximum of 10 and eight.
Four thousand students will now be able to enrol in summer school through Te Kura Correspondence School. There is normally a cap of 1000 students.
