13956 (2025). Camilla Belich to the Minister for Whānau Ora: On how many occasions, if any, since 27 November 2023, has the Minister intervened in, overruled, or influenced a decision made by any agency under their responsibility, and what were the circumstances of each instance?

Hon Tama Potaka: None as far as I can recall. I regularly meet officials from Te Puni Kōkiri in relation to my portfolio responsibilities. As the Member would expect, these kōrero are wide-ranging and of a free and frank nature or on matters that are under active consideration in my portfolio.
