Hon Judith Collins: I received the following from the New Zealand Defence Force (NZDF) and Ministry of Defence: • Cabinet paper: Mandate Review of the New Zealand Defence Force Contribution to Military Action Against the Houthi Targets, June 2024 • Aide Memoire: Mandate Review of the New Zealand Defence Force Contribution to Military Action Against the Houthi Targets, June 2024 The title of one briefing I received from the NZDF is withheld in full to avoid prejudice to the security and defence of New Zealand and the international relations of the Government of New Zealand. I also receive updates regarding NZDF operations and activities as part of Defence Weekly Reports.
