28868 (2024). Francisco Hernandez to the Minister for Economic Development: How many jobs broken down by job titles and region, if any, are planned to be disestablished in the Minister’s Departments, if any, over the next twelve months ?

Hon Melissa Lee: I am advised that the Ministry of Business, Innovation and Employment has a number of change processes underway on which they are consulting with staff. Final decisions are made and shared with their employees. MBIE will release organisation change proposals and decisions on their external website at a later date. With regard to NZGCP - I am advised that NZGCP is intending to reduce its overall headcount by approximately 3- 5 FTE over the next 12 months. Due to the size of NZGCP and because is has not commenced consultation with staff, it is not able to confirm roles, titles, or location at this time.
