For New Zealand Trade and Enterprise (NZTE), I refer the member to the attached table. I am advised the fee review process for NZTE has not yet been undertaken by the Ministry of Business, Innovation and Employment, however, in anticipation NZTE has budgeted for an increase from January 2026 – June 2026.
