Answer

Since 27 November 2023, I have made one member appointment to the Nominating Committee for the Climate Change Commission. Members may receive a daily fee of $395. No fee increase was associated with this appointment. I have also recommended to the Governor-General the appointment of two members and one Chair to the Climate Change Commission. I do not hold information on the fees for Commission Board roles, as fees are set by the Remuneration Authority I am not the responsible Minister for any boards managed by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Trade.
