Answer

Monthly lists of briefings that I have received as part of my Defence portfolio responsibilities are regularly proactively released on the New Zealand Defence Force website at https://www.nzdf.mil.nz/media-centre/official-information-requests/ At this stage, no decisions have been made about specific roles that may be affected.
