76926 (2024). Francisco Hernandez to the Minister of Internal Affairs: How many graduate positions, if any, were there in the Minister's departments, if any, between November 2023 and November 2024?

Hon Brooke van Velden: I refer the member to the attached table at Appendix A, which provides a breakdown of the number of graduate positions at the Department of Internal Affairs between November 2023 and November 2024. I am advised by the Department of Internal Affairs that it manages the Finance Graduate and GovTech Graduate programmes across the Public Service. This means it employs the graduates and manages their secondments to other agencies.
