Answer

I am advised that, with regard to the Ministry of Business, Innovation and Employment, the attached table provides information about redundancy costs between 1 July 2025 and 20 March 2026. Information relating to prior financial years can be found in MBIE's responses to its 2023/24 and 2024/25 Annual Review questions, Question 164 and 46 respectively. With regard to New Zealand Growth Capital Partners, I am advised three positions were disestablished and the total cost of redundancy payments has been withheld to protect the privacy of natural persons.
