Dear Department of Internal Affairs,

Under the OIA, I kindly request the following information.

Are there any plans to to change the NZ Passport cover to feature English first then Te Reo. If so, what is the date of the change? If not, has this issue been raised since the National led government was sworn in recently? Please provide any/all correspondence relating to this matter.

Will Te Tari Taiwhenua be changing the order of its agency name back to Department of Internal Affairs first then the Te Reo translation 2nd? If so, when will this change come into effect?

Thank you.

Yours faithfully,

James
