20510 (2026). Camilla Belich to the Minister for the Public Service and Digitising Government: Does he consider that Te Kawa Mataaho Public Service Commission's paid social media messaging between 18 and 22 October 2025 met the requirement in the Guidelines for Government Advertising that government advertising be "fair, honest, and impartial"; if so, on what basis?

Hon Paul Goldsmith: It would not be appropriate for me to comment on this while the review is underway.
