27199 (2025). Camilla Belich to the Minister for the Public Service: What evidence, if any, does the Minister have to determine that there is declining financial stewardship in the public service?

Hon Judith Collins: This view has been informed by our Government’s concerns about the disproportionate growth in public service expenditure since 2017, and the need to ensure fiscal sustainability into the future.
