Answer

I refer the Member to the list below of briefings I received from Education agencies during the week beginning 23 February 2026. Tertiary Education Commission 26 February 2026 - Revised Draft Plan Guidance for Investment for 2027 New Zealand Qualifications Authority 25 February 2026 - NZQA Code Administrator Report 2022-2025 Ministry of Education 26 February 2026 - Proposed Vote Tertiary Education performance measures for Budget 2026 26 February 2026 - Next Steps following Hon James Meager Aviation Correspondence 26 February 2026 -Tertiary Education Weekly Update 27 February 2026 - Draft Cabinet paper and RIS to support decisions on the four remaining polytechnics This answer does not cover members of my office who receive a large amount of material every week. Asking them to collate that material would require substantial collation and research and prevent them from undertaking their substantive roles. Please note some titles have been withheld as they are either sensitive in nature or still under active consideration. It is not in the public interest to release them at this time. This is also my response to written parliamentary question 7060 (2026).
