Answer

I am advised that the Department of Conservation budgeted $36,000 for the Carbon Neutral Government Programme in the 2025 calendar year. I am further advised that, for context, this figure does not include any staffing and operational costs, which are not separately budgeted for this work and are instead covered from departmental baselines.
