The Minister and his current Ministerial staff have contact with many organisations, companies and individuals in various forums during the course of its business. It is not considered a reasonable or appropriate use of Government resources to provide an answer over a six year period.
However, the Minister and his Ministerial staff have not met with Andrew Abercrombie regarding Government business between 1 January 2014 and 22 April 2015.
