6353 (2026). Francisco Hernandez to the Minister of Conservation: How many vacancies, if any, were there in the Minister’s departments, agencies, crown entities and any other bodies that the Minister is responsible for, if any, as of 1 January 2023?

Hon Tama Potaka: The Department of Conservation advises me that it is unable to provide comparable vacancy data for this reporting date as the Department was undergoing an organisational change at the time. The vacancy data that is held in the system is not a true representation of actual vacant roles.
