How much, if anything, has been charged to Ministerial Services code 82112 International Accommodation for Rt Hon Winston Peters’s trip to France, Italy and Indonesia in June 2025 so far and what variance, if any, was there from the budgeted amount for accommodation approved for the trip?

Answer
$3,258.41 has been charged to Ministerial Services code 82112 for this trip to date. I am advised that Ministerial Services records the total approved budget for the trip, not what has been budgeted against each category of spend. They are unable to provide information on variances (if any) for individual categories of expenditure.
