27201 (2025). Camilla Belich to the Minister for the Public Service: What evidence, if any, does the Minister have to determine that there is declining emphasis on political neutrality in the public service?

Hon Judith Collins: This view has been informed by our Government’s recent experiences of ‘leaks’ of government information by public servants, which we view as a breach of political neutrality.
