Sometimes, people unlawfully in New Zealand are arrested by the Police and placed in custody because they have committed other offences. Because action in relation to other offences takes precedence over removal action, it may not be possible to proceed with removal immediately. If it is still appropriate to remove them, then a removal order should be served and the officer should liaise with the Police to determine how the removal can best be effected.
