With the 1990 Commonwealth games to be held in Auckland there was a move to raise the profile of the issue of drugs in sport and to ensure that the games in Auckland should be clean and the New Zealand Olympic and Commonwealth Games Association (NZOCGA and now the New Zealand Olympic Committee) responded to this by instituting a testing programme in 1989 for all athletes who were in contention for selection in the New Zealand team for those Games. The government, through the Hillary Commission, contributed to the cost of that programme.
After the Games, the Hillary Commission boosted their funding and contracted the NZOCGA to run a programme which would cover a wider range of predominantly Olympic sports although some non-Olympic sports, such as Rugby Union, also chose to join the programme. At the same time the Commission established a Task Force to examine the issue and recommend what steps needed to be taken to address the problem. That Task Force reported back in February 1991 with two primary recommendations:
- That a National Policy on the Misuse of Drugs in Sport be adopted by government
- That a New Zealand Sports Drug Authority be established by Statute
These recommendations was put into immediate effect by the establishment of a stand alone committee of the Hillary Commission to work on developing policies and establishing programmes to monitor misuse of drugs in sport. In 1995 this Committee would become a stand alone agency, the New Zealand Sports Drug Agency, follow the passing of the New Zealand Sports Drug Agency Act 1994.
In 1995 the New Zealand government joined the International Anti-Doping Arrangement (IADA), initially an agreement between five countries (New Zealand, Australia, Canada, Norway, and the United Kingdom), to co-operate in anti-doping matters and to improve each countries anti-doping programmes.
The IADA was a government to government agreement, and to further develop anti-doping initiatives the members of IADA entered into a partnership with the World Anti-Doping Agency (WADA) - an independent, composite body of equal sport and government representation formed in 1999 through a collective initiative led by the International Olympic Committee (IOC) to improve, harmonise and mobilise anti-doping work internationally.
New Zealand became a signatory of WADA's World Anti-Doping Code agreed in Copenhagen in March 2003 and the code was applied by all signatories including International Federations, National Anti-Doping Organisations, the International Olympic and Paralympic Committees.
