Answer

I regularly request and receive advice on a range of topics. In the interest of transparency, a list of titles of papers that I have received from the Ministry of Business, Innovation and Employment (MBIE) and ACC are published on MBIE's and ACC's website: https://www.mbie.govt.nz/about/open-government-and-official-information/release-of-information/lists-of-ministerial-documents-by-portfolio/acc; https://www.acc.co.nz/resources#/category/1.
