Answer

Titles of all advice, including briefings, I have received has been, or will be, proactively released on the Stats NZ website here: https://www.stats.govt.nz/about-us/what-we-do/advice-for-the-minister-of-statistics/. I regularly request and receive advice on a range of topics. My office receives a large amount of material every week. Asking them to collate that material would require substantial collation and research and prevent them from undertaking their substantive roles. I do not consider this to be in the public interest.
