Answer

Each year the Public Service Commission (along with other Public Service departments and departmental agencies) are required to report on the total cost of redundancy processes initiated through Select Committee Annual Reviews. I refer the member to this publicly available information on the Parliament website at the following link: https://www3.parliament.nz/en/pb/sc/submissions-and-advice/document/54SCGOA_EVI_25b52fe6-f0f9-4b4a-b6a5-08de12a0458d_GOA47332/public-service-commission-responses-to-written-questions
