1675 (2025). Francisco Hernandez to the Minister for Social Development and Employment

1675 (2025). Francisco Hernandez to the Minister for Social Development and Employment: Approximately how many pages of communication, if any, has the Minister's department, if any, sent to the Ministry for Regulation - including correspondence, meeting requests, briefings and all other communication, across all communication channels including emails, text, and social media messages?

Hon Louise Upston: I am advised that the Ministry of Social Development (Ministry) is unable to provide the information sought by the Member within a written parliamentary question timeframe as it would take substantial collation and require the Ministry to divert personnel from their core duties. In accordance with Speaker’s Ruling 210/6, I consider that the time, and hence the expense, of answering these questions within this timeframe is not in the public interest.
