  • What advice, if any, has the Minister received on fuel tax relief or targeted subsidies since 1 March 2026, listed by date and title?

Hon Nicola Willis

List MP · National Party · Minister of Finance

Answer

The Ministry of Business, Innovation and Employment has published briefing titles provided to Ministers as part of the All of Government Response on Fuel Security, which can be found here: https://mbie.govt.nz/all-of-government-response-on-fuel-security In addition, the Treasury publishes a monthly list of titles and dates of advice to Ministers, by the middle of the month after the advice is provided. I refer the member to that list, which can be found here: https://www.treasury.govt.nz/publications/budgets/titles-advice-ministers. The application of additional resources to answer this and similar questions now is not a good use of taxpayer funds and therefore not in the public interest.
