9539 (2026). Camilla Belich to the Minister for Sport and Recreation: What funding, if any, has been distributed by any department or entity for which the Minister is responsible to any entity in which a current member of the governing parties' boards, officers, or staff hold a governance or paid role since 27 November 2023, listed by recipient entity, amount, purpose, date, and the name of the connection?
Hon Mark Mitchell: The Sport Integrity Commission does not distribute funding to any entities. I am advised providing this information for all staff at Sport New Zealand would require substantial collation and manual analysis. I am therefore not prepared to require officials to undertake this work for the purposes of this response. However, I note that Sport New Zealand publicly discloses conflicts of interest for its Board and Group Executive Team. This information is reported in response to Question 6 (page 10) of the 2024/25 Annual Review of Sport New Zealand, available at: http://www3.parliament.nz/resource/en-NZ/54SCSSC_EVI_b351132d-e156-4dd5-1b58-08de2acb157f_SSC21661/6ce657c1850203be8193d8983eff7ba0c133ce2e In addition, relevant disclosures are also included in the Sport New Zealand Annual Report from page 110, available at: https://sportnz.org.nz/media/jhqf5xxf/2024_25-sport-nz-annual-report-11_25-web.pdf
