You could also call this:

"Searching with warrants for foreign orders: new rules added to the law"

When you look at the law about searching and surveillance, you will see that some parts of it apply to special kinds of orders from other countries. These orders are called foreign restraining orders and foreign forfeiture orders. The law says that some rules from the Search and Surveillance Act 2012 will be used when the police ask for a warrant to search something related to these orders.

You can find more information about the Search and Surveillance Act 2012 on the New Zealand legislation website. The rules that apply are from Part 4 of this act, but not from subpart 6. These rules will be slightly changed if needed to fit the situation, and they will be used when the police ask for a warrant under certain sections of the law, which are sections 124 to 126.
