Law enforcement agencies around the Province are getting a nice shot in the arm. New legislation passed in Fredericton gives the Attorney General power to sell or dispose of property that has been seized, restrained or forfeited to the provincial government under the Criminal Code and the federal Controlled Drugs and Substances Act.

A proceeds of crime trust fund has been established for the deposit of any funds recovered from the sale of forfeited property or liquid assets seized that are the proceeds of crime. A proceeds of crime strategic management committee has been established to advise the attorney general about the management and administration of the trust fund.
