  • What briefings, reports, aide-memoirs, memos, or other written reports did he receive, if any, from the transport agencies in January 2026, listed by title and date?

Answer

As Minister of Transport, I regularly request and receive advice from officials on a range of matters. MoT and NZTA publish monthly lists of titles of advice provided to me (refer to https://www.transport.govt.nz/about-us/our-corporate-publications/proactive-releases/results and https://www.nzta.govt.nz/about-us/advice-provided-to-ministers). Some of the titles may not be released if they relate to the provision of free and frank advice or are under active consideration. Furthermore, staff in my Office may informally receive documents, including draft advice, from officials and other Ministers' Offices. This information is not held in a format that can be easily extracted within the timeframe.
