4053 (2025). Hon Peeni Henare to the Minister of Defence: What advice, if any, has the Minister received on the feasibility and cost implications of increasing defence spending to 2% of GDP by 2030, listed by title and date?

Hon Judith Collins: As Minister of Defence I have received a range of briefings on defence spending. As the Defence Capability Plan is subject to Cabinet consideration it would not be appropriate for me to comment further at this time.
