22186 (2025). Francisco Hernandez to the Minister for Workplace Relations and Safety: What advice, if any, did the Minister receive prior to introducing legislation that would halt all current pay equity claims, listed by title and date?

Hon Brooke van Velden: As the Minister for Workplace Relations and Safety, the titles of advice I have received from the Ministry of Business, Innovation (MBIE) are considered for proactive release on a regular basis. Titles of advice relating to pay equity will be added to MBIE's website in due course: https://www.mbie.govt.nz/about/open-government-and-official-information/release-of-information/lists-of-ministerial-documents-by-portfolio/workplace-relations-and-safety.
