Subject: Official Information request - Agency Debt

Dear Grant Robertson,

Please provide a list of all of the government agencies that have and or / can issue their own debt and borrow without going through Treasury. Kainga Ora are / had been doing this.

Can you also please provide their current debt amounts - think KO has $12.1B in debt.

And can you tell me how this is taken into account when Treasury release the accounts.

For example latest numbers released show debt is at $73B - does this take into account the $12.1B that KO has in debt which would mean it is actually $85B?

So can you please provide the current numbers

- Net Crown Debt
- Plus agency and amount of Debt
- Total Debt

Yours faithfully,
Chris
