41990 (2024). Hon Dr Ayesha Verrall to the Minister for Trade: In the Minister’s departments, ministries and agencies, if any, how many roles, if any, have been identified for disestablishment, listed by role title, remuneration band, and business group (or equivalent organisational unit), between 27 November 2023 and 10 July 2024?

Hon Todd McClay: I refer the Member to the Minister of Foreign Affairs response to WPQ 41745 (2024). At New Zealand Trade and Enterprise, there has been a reduction in 28 positions, eight of which were vacant. Due to the small number of roles we are not listing by role title or remuneration band for individual privacy reasons. However, disestablished roles are broadly categorised in the answer to WPQ 40372 (2024) and occurred in the following business units Digital & Data, Strategy Performance and Partners, Customer Solutions Group and Export Customer (Operations).
