Answer

In my capacity as Associate Minister for Social Development and Employment, I regularly request and receive advice on a range of topics. In the interest of transparency, a list of reports received by my office from the Ministry of Social Development (MSD) is regularly published on MSD's website. The lists of titles are available here: https://msd.govt.nz/about-msd-and-our-work/publications-resources/information-releases/reports-to-associate-minister/index.html.
