Answer

I am advised that in the 2025/26 financial year, the Ministry of Health spent approximately $45,120 on activities associated with the Carbon Neutral Government Programme. I am further advised by Health New Zealand that emissions reporting and assurance costs for the 2025/26 financial year equated to $115,400 and 1.5 full-time equivalent role.
