NZ Customs Release Issue 742

The NZ-EU Free Trade Agreement came into force on 1 May 2024, providing access to one of the world's biggest trading markets.

Last month Customs detector dog teams recently joined 17 fellow agencies for dog training workshops in Trentham, Wellington.

The workshops were conducted by internationally recognised police dog trainer, Dick Staal, and covered detection, puppy development, and tracking. This was an amazing opportunity for Customs to be able to share and have discussions about our dog training programmes, as well as network, make new connections and build relationships.

Every May, Deaf Aotearoa takes centre stage to organise New Zealand Sign Language Week, a vibrant celebration of one of the country's official languages. 

This year's theme is An Aotearoa Where Anyone Can Sign Anywhere – so why not have some fun with New Zealand Sign Language in the workplace!

Don't forget to tune in to next Monday's final episode for more top dog discoveries. Dog Squad airs on TVNZ 1 at 8pm on Monday, or can be streamed on TVNZ+.
