31161 (2026). Francisco Hernandez to the Minister for Workplace Relations and Safety: How much, if any, have the Minister’s departments, agencies, crown entities and any other bodies that the Minister is responsible for, if any, budgeted for the carbon neutral government programme in the 2026/27 financial year?

Hon Brooke van Velden: I am advised that WorkSafe New Zealand has budgeted $12,000 for the Carbon Neutral Government Programme for 2026-2027 financial year. The Remuneration Authority is not a participant in the Carbon Neutral Government Programme, so the budget is zero.
