Kids must be protected from drugs
National Party Families spokeswoman Judith Collins says New Zealand’s children must be protected from the Greens Bill to reform cannabis law.
“Any relaxation of the law will put more of our children at risk. A National Government will not legalise cannabis.
“This is precisely the sort of dangerous agenda the Greens will pursue if they’re allowed anywhere near the Government benches in a worst case scenario coalition with Labour. There will be more social engineering.
“There’s no way this law should be relaxed.
“National does not plan to see more of our kids exposed to drugs,” says Ms Collins.
