Dear C Foss,
I was working in the transport industry for over 50 years and was subject to random drug and alcohol testing as many work places are. NZ Immigration airport staff are making major decisions and therefore should be fit and proper to do so - are they subject to the same as other transport industry workers in New Zealand or are they exempt?
Yours sincerely,
John Harpley
