Answer

Since 27 November 2023, Sport New Zealand has incurred $119,886.11 in redundancy costs. The Sport Integrity Commission commenced on 1 June 2024. The Commission implemented a new organisational structure, effective 1 September 2025. This process resulted in two people being made redundant. There were no costs associated with the redundancies.
