Answer

I received the following advice from the National Emergency Management Agency during the week beginning 3 August 2026: • Aide-memoire – Minister’s remarks to attendees at the NZ Summer Preparedness Summit • Aide Memoire – Coordinating between New Zealand and Australia NEMAs I also received the following advice from the Department of Internal Affairs during this period: • Briefing: Pre-Election Baseline Update 2026 for Vote Internal Affairs – Emergency Management and Recovery Appropriations I received three additional documents during this period; however, it is not in the public interest to release the titles of these documents. In addition, staff in my office may informally receive documents, including draft documents, from officials in NEMA, other agencies, and other Ministers’ offices.
