Dear New Zealand Police,
I am a New Zealand citizen resident in New Zealand.
I just saw what appeared to be a genuine NZ Police car and uniform on a TV advertisement for a Suzuki vehicle.
Can you please advise if Police have approved the use of their logo, uniform and vehicle in this ad, and if so, please provide all details of any agreement reached with Suzuki that allows this use, as well as all internal communications and communications with Suzuki regarding this.
If no approval was given, please provide all internal communications and communications with Suzuki regarding this matter.
Yours faithfully,
Asher Wilson-Goldman
