30857 (2025). Celia Wade-Brown to the Minister for Tourism and Hospitality: What proportion, if any, of funding from the International Visitor Conservation and Tourism Levy 2025/26 will be spent on Tourism New Zealand?

Hon Louise Upston: I am unable to provide a definitive proportion of International Visitor Conservation and Tourism Levy (IVL) funding that will be allocated to Tourism New Zealand in the 2025/26 financial year, as the total IVL revenue for that period has not yet been collected. IVL revenue depends on international visitor arrivals, which can vary from year to year. As a result, the proportion of funding allocated to Tourism New Zealand cannot be confirmed until the actual revenue is known.
