Good afternoon Luke
 
The Cabinet Office, Department of Prime Minister and Cabinet, leads the
planning and arrangements in response to the Demise of The Crown (the New
Zealand Government response to the death of Her Majesty The Queen). The
New Zealand Defence Force (NZDF), together with other agencies and
organisations, has responsibilities under that plan. The key elements of
the NZDF’s involvement are firing gun salutes at designated times,
providing support to the Proclamation of Accession Ceremony, and support
to the State Memorial Service.

Good afternoon Luke
 
The NZDF supports the wider New Zealand response to the Demise of the
Crown and is one element of the wider plan. The NZDF has been an integral
part of this planning and is preparing for a range of likely tasks. It is
up to the lead agency, however, to provide public details of exactly how
the Government will respond.
 
It appears that you have already addressed questions on this topic to the
Cabinet Office.
