What aides-mémoire, briefings, memos, notes, reports, or any other advice, if any, has the Minister or their Office received during the week beginning 13 April 2026, listed by agency, title and date received?

Answer

As Minister of Transport, I regularly request and receive advice from officials on a range of matters. MoT and NZTA publish monthly lists of titles of advice provided to me (refer to https://www.transport.govt.nz/about-us/our-corporate-publications/proactive-releases/results and https://www.nzta.govt.nz/about-us/advice-provided-to-ministers). Some of the titles may not be released if they relate to the provision of free and frank advice or are under active consideration. Furthermore, staff in my Office may informally receive documents, including draft advice, from officials and other Ministers' Offices. This information is not held in a format that can be easily extracted within the timeframe. In my role on the Ministerial Oversight Group on Economic Security and Supply-chains, I have also received papers from the Ministry of Business, Innovation and Employment (MBIE). I am advised that a titles of briefings and reports are regularly published on MBIE’s website (https://www.mbie.govt.nz/about/open-government-and-official-information/release-of-information/lists-of-ministerial-documents-by-portfolio). I have received the following additional papers: - T2026-652 Treasury Report Ferry Holdings Limited Updated 2025-26 Statement of Performance Expectations (16/04/2026) - KiwiRail report: Response to fuel situation (16/04/2026)
