Answer

This question relates to the operational decision-making of the Ministry of Business, Innovation and Employment (MBIE). I expect MBIE to comply with the Official Information Act 1982. If the Member has questions regarding MBIE's responses to requests made under the Act they should direct them to MBIE.
