Thread: NZ Police import permit 'Hand in' MSSA policy

Sorry, had a search but couldn't find anything recent.
What is the current status of NZ Police demanding a 'hand in' MSSA or MSSA parts as part of an import permit? I've just received a permit (applied for it on 7 March and sent a reminder to the AO last week ) for an AR15 trigger and buffer tube and they've added those conditions.

I see Nicholas Taylor's website has this (came up in my google searches):

February 2016 - I have recently met with COLFO to assist them with challenges to recent police policies that are potentially unlawful and ultra vires their authority. In particular imposing conditions on import permits and producing a new mail order form.
