64728 (2024). Ricardo Menéndez March to the Associate Minister of Health: What organisations, businesses, or individuals, if any, have engaged with the Minister or her office about the five documents constituting the independent advice regarding heated tobacco products?

Hon Casey Costello: None. I note that one of the documents was authored by Emeritus Professor Robert Beaglehole, who I have met with in his role as Chair of Action for Smokefree 2025 (ASH). These meetings are recorded in my Ministerial Diary, which is proactively released every month at https://www.beehive.govt.nz/minister/hon-casey-costello.
