21315 (2026). Camilla Belich to the Minister for the Environment

21315 (2026). Camilla Belich to the Minister for the Environment: What evidence base, including any business cases, pilot results, productivity studies, benchmark data, or independent advice, was relied upon in determining that AI could absorb the workload of the roles being disestablished as part of savings made in Budget 2026 for votes the Minister is responsible for and deliver the forecast savings, if any, broken down by agency, department, Crown entity, company, or other organisation for which the Minister is responsible, if any?

Hon Nicola Grigg: No decisions have been made about roles that may be affected by savings targets through Budget 2026. As such, no consideration has been made about determining what roles may be affected by the increased use of AI.
