Creating the Ministry of Business, Innovation and Employment

One of National’s priorities is building a more productive and competitive economy. To help drive this we are establishing a single, dedicated business-facing government department to strengthen the public service’s ability to work on business policy, regulation and engagement.

On 1 July, the new Ministry of Business, Innovation and Employment will merge:
· Ministry of Economic Development
· Department of Labour
· Ministry of Science and Innovation
· Department of Building and Housing.

The new ministry will make it easier for New Zealand businesses to engage with government, rather than dealing separately with a number of different agencies when they are seeking advice or support.
