New Zealand's becoming more vulnerable to corruption by organised crime.  

An independent advisory panel's urged the Government to take immediate action.  

It says police officers, immigration officials, and private sector employees have facilitated drug smuggling, leaked sensitive information, and undermined our border system.  

Customs Minister Casey Costello told Ryan Bridge she agrees we can't rest on our laurels. 

She says we are the only Five Eyes partner that doesn't have a national corruption strategy, and our legislation isn't fit for purpose.
