  • What contracts, if any, does Immigration New Zealand have for translating Pacific languages, by vendor, value of the contract, and when it was signed?

Answer

I am advised Immigration New Zealand does not hold specific contracts for translating Pacific languages. Where interpretation services are required, these are accessed through the Language Assistance Services programme, administered by the Ministry for Ethnic Communities.
