3928 (2026). Hon Dr Megan Woods to the Prime Minister

3928 (2026). Hon Dr Megan Woods to the Prime Minister: Was the Prime Minister advised at any point of potential or perceived conflicts of interest relating to any Minister’s involvement in the decision to establish a liquefied natural gas (LNG) import terminal, and if so, what action, if any, was taken?

Rt Hon Christopher Luxon: Disclosures of information relating to Ministerial conflicts of interest are inherently confidential and not disclosed. This has been the approach of successive administrations, and I do not intend to depart from it. In order to maintain the confidentiality of Cabinet proceedings, it is also not in the public interest to provide details of the discussions at Cabinet.
