36977 (2025). Tangi Utikere to the Minister for Workplace Relations and Safety: What was the nature of the special training that 155 WorkSafe inspectors received to help them spot road cone over-compliance and how much did this training cost?

Hon Brooke van Velden: I am advised that the training received by WorkSafe inspectors was designed to provide foundational temporary traffic management knowledge. As this module of training is a portion of a wider contract for services its cost is commercially sensitive.
