Answer

The information requested by the member is already in the public domain and it is published on the New Zealand Defence Force website. The Ministry of Defence does not systematically hold historic information about vacancies at a point in time. As reported to the Foreign Affairs, Defence, and Trade Select Committee, as at 31 March 2023 there were 15 vacancies.
