35420 (2026). Vanushi Walters to the Minister of Foreign Affairs: Further to reply 33603 (2026), did New Zealand raise its process concerns about the reappointment with the Office of the Secretary-General, the President of the General Assembly, or any other member state before 24 July 2026, and if not, why not?

Rt Hon Winston Peters: No, because they only emerged during the debate.
