22623 (2026). Camilla Belich to the Minister of Police: On what date, if at all, did the Minister first receive advice regarding the role reductions being made as part of savings made in Budget 2026 for votes the Minister is responsible for, if any, and from whom, broken down by agency, department, Crown entity, company, or other organisation for which the Minister is responsible?

Hon Mark Mitchell: New Zealand Police are exempt from the headcount reduction exercise. For the Serious Fraud Office, I have not yet received advice on this subject.
