4678 (2025). Hon Phil Twyford to the Minister of Immigration: Does she stand by her statement that she has “already started work on the visa”, in relation to the Parent Boost Visa?

Hon Erica Stanford: Yes. As I informed the member in my responses to WPQs 2903 (2025) and 3566 (2025) there are already 2.2 FTE in MBIE working on this visa. I received my first piece of substantive policy advice on this work on 13 February.
