14111 (2025). Camilla Belich to the Minister for ACC: 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 Scott Simpson: The roles and responsibility of a minister are set out in the Cabinet Manual, which is available on the following website: https://www.dpmc.govt.nz/our-business-units/cabinet-office/supporting-work-cabinet/cabinet-manual/3-ministers-crown-and-public-sector/ministers-and-public-service. Since becoming Minister for ACC on 24 February 2025, there are occasions on which I have appropriately had input into its actions. However, these inputs are not collated or registered in a way that could be included in a single answer.
