13068 (2026). Dr Lawrence Xu-Nan to the Associate Minister of Education: What reports, briefings, emails, memos, aides-memoire, notes or written advice, if any, has the Associate Minister and/or his Office requested from the Ministry of Education regarding any impact of the rising cost of fuel on school transport; listed by date, title, and agency received?

Hon David Seymour: My office requests a large amount of advice every week. Asking them to collate that material would require substantial collation and research and prevent them from undertaking their substantive roles. I do not consider this to be in the public interest.
