Answer

I was advised on 15 July 2026 that NZQA would be commencing consultation on proposed changes to the Assessment Division’s structure. As Minister, I do not become involved in NZQA’s operational or internal organisational matters. These are the responsibility of NZQA’s Board and Chief Executive.
