13429 (2025). Camilla Belich to the Minister for Economic Growth

13429 (2025). Camilla Belich to the Minister for Economic Growth: What is the total amount, if any, spent by any agencies under the Minister’s responsibility on subscriptions or memberships to external organisations since 27 November 2023, broken down by agency and organisation?

Hon Nicola Willis: Some financial year costs associated with subscriptions or memberships to external organisations for the year 2023–24 are detailed in the Ministry of Business, Innovation and Employment's 2023-24 Annual Review documents. I refer the Member to question 120 of these documents, which are publicly available on Parliament’s website. Information for the 2024–25 year will be publicly available in MBIE's 2024–25 Annual Review documents. Providing this information within the required timeframe would require substantial time and resources. It is my view that the application of additional resources to answer this and similar questions now is not a good use of taxpayer funds and therefore not in the public interest.
