Dear Ms Eagan,

The Ministry's policy for reimbursement to staff for the use of a private motor vehicle per kilometre is based on Inland Revenue's policy which is contained in the web link below and is publicly available.

Dear OIA_Requests (MSD),

Thanks for your reply. The link you gave had three different methods to calculate reimbursement. Please advise which of the following the ministry is using:

- the IRD mileage rate
- rates published by a reputable independent New Zealand source representing a reasonable estimate (for example New Zealand Automobile Association mileage rates), or
- actual costs.

Yours sincerely,

K Eagan
