7086 (2025). Hon Willie Jackson to the Minister for Social Development and Employment

7086 (2025). Hon Willie Jackson to the Minister for Social Development and Employment: Does the Minister stand by her statement in response to oral question 6 on February 13th that "...I know very well how important the Kinleith employment is in that community, and that is why, as a Government, we are looking at options" and if so, what specific options, if any, has she considered?

Hon Louise Upston: Yes. As the Minister of Social Development and Employment, I regularly consider advice. In the interest of transparency, a list of reports received by my office from the Ministry of Social Development is regularly published on the Ministry of Social Development website. The lists of titles published since September 2018 are available here: www.msd.govt.nz/about-msd-and-our-work/publications-resources/information-releases/reports-to-minister/index.html. Papers I have received from the Ministry of Business, Innovation and Employment are or will soon be published on: https://www.mbie.govt.nz/about/open-government-and-official-information/release-of-information/lists-of-ministerial-documents-by-portfolio/social-development-and-employment.
