Has the Minister received any advice from officials on the risks, if any, of a NZU shortfall in the late 2020s, if so, what was this advice?

Answer
Officials regularly provide me with advice on the NZ ETS, including advice as part of the annual ETS Settings process. In their advice they outline a range of risks, including potential over and under supply of NZUs in the NZ ETS market. This advice is market sensitive and will be proactively released in due course.
