Dear correspondent

 

On behalf of Hon Paula Bennett, thank you for your email.

messages are carefully read and considered, it is not possible to provide
a personal response to every email which is received.

 

Where the Minister has portfolio responsibility for the issues that you
have raised, your correspondence will be considered and responded to where
appropriate.
