Rt Hon Winston Peters

List MP · NZ First · Minister of Foreign Affairs

Answer

I am advised that the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Trade does not break down allegations of workplace bullying into further categories or types of behaviour. For Antarctica New Zealand, the answer is none. For the Asia New Zealand Foundation, there was one allegation of discriminatory bullying in the 2022/23 financial year.
