Answer

As Prime Minister, I regularly request and receive advice from officials on a range of matters relating to my Prime Minister portfolio, including from the Department of the Prime Minister and Cabinet (DPMC). In my capacity as Prime Minister, I have received no advice from DPMC officials relating to the unemployment rate for Pacific peoples released by Stats NZ.
