The Justice Minister says a proposed law change will help crack down on gang bosses.

The Government is to give police more powers to seize assets worth more than $30,000 from associates of organised criminal groups.

Minister Kiri Allan told Morning Report these are tools police have been asking for.

Allan says police estimate this will increase seizures by a value of $25 million.
