16729 (2026). Hon Jan Tinetti to the Minister for Social Investment: What aides-mémoire, briefings, memos, notes, reports, or any other advice, if any, has the Minister or their Office received during the week beginning 13 April 2026, listed by agency, title and date received?

Hon Nicola Willis: I am advised that the Social Investment Agency publishes a monthly list of titles of advice to Ministers, by the middle of the month after the advice is provided. I refer the member to that list, which can be found here: https://www.sia.govt.nz/about/official-information-act-oia-requests. 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.
