Mr Adam Irish
Thank you for your request of 27 November 2023 to the Ministry of Business, Innocation and
Employment (MBIE) requesting the following information under the Official Information Act (OIA):
I request under the Official Information all information that may be useful to the public or a future
government on the national income insurance scheme. Significant public funds have been spent of policy
work and this should be retained so that a future government doesn't have to pay for the work again
should it wish to proceed with this policy. I'm happy for this to be a zip file.
On 4 May 2023, MBIE released all advice relating to the previous Government’s proposed New Zealand
Income Insurance scheme. These documents are publically available at the following link:

I trust you find the information helpful. You have the right to seek an investigation and review by the
Ombudsman of this decision. Information about how to make a complaint is available at
www.ombudsman.parliament.nz or freephone 0800 802 602.
Yours sincerely
Libby Gerard
