1360 (2025). Camilla Belich to the Minister for Workplace Relations and Safety: What advice, if any, has the Minister received regarding the minimum wage rate for 2025, and from whom?
Hon Brooke van Velden: In November 2024, I received the Minimum Wage Review 2024 report prepared by the Ministry of Business, Innovation and Employment. This provided advice and analysis on minimum wage options for 2025, informed by the most up-to-date economic data and forecasts available at that time. This advice, and related papers are available on the Ministry's website at www.mbie.govt.nz/business-and-employment/employment-and-skills/employment-legislation-reviews/minimum-wage-reviews.
