Which agencies, departments, Crown entities, companies, or other organisations for which the Minister is responsible, if any, have been required to identify or deliver baseline savings or staffing reductions since 27 November 2023, and how much, if anything, has each delivered, broken down by organisation and year, as at 5 June 2026?

Answer

Budget 2024 Te Arawhiti was required to deliver $2.7m per annum in baseline savings. These were achieved through: - $2.393 million reduction in Claimant Funding from 2024/25 onwards - $0.083 million reduction in Māori Crown Relations - Strengthening Crown Capability in 2024/25 and $0.082 million from 2025/26 onwards - $0.266 million reduction in Treaty Negotiations and Marine and Coastal Area Customary Interest in 2024/25 and $0.264 million from 2025/26 onwards. Budget 2025 No baseline savings were required. Budget 2026 Te Tari Whakatau is expected to deliver $0.800 million per annum in baseline savings. The internal budget for 2026/27 is still being finalised, however, the majority of savings are expected to come from the Shared Service Agreement with the Ministry of Justice.
