39581 (2025). Hon Kieran McAnulty to the Minister for Māori Development: Which departmental or agency officials (by name, title, and department) were invited / proposed to accompany him to Hawaiʻi, broken down by role, whether they travelled, costs incurred to departments, if any, and in cases where they didn’t travel, the reason they did not travel?
Hon Tama Potaka: Initially it was proposed a senior official from Te Puni Kōkiri would accompany me on the international trip but this was subsequently deemed unnecessary given I was meeting about a range of my portfolios and that support from on the ground NZ government officials and my ministerial advisor would be sufficient.
