New Zealand is further obligated to apply these measures against specific entities listed by the United Nations Security Counsel as being associated with the Taleban or Al-Qaeda network.
The Terrorism Suppression Act 2002 provides for a list of terrrorist entities to be established and maintained in New Zealand.
