Dear Christopher Luxon,
Did the Prime Minister host members of the primary sector group Te Hono for an event at Premier House last month?
Please provide the dates that event was hosted at Premier House and how many people attended.
Did Te Hono pay for the use of Premier House or was use of the building provided free of charge?
Is it normal policy to allow private groups to use Premier House and are they normally charged for its use? If so, what is the daily hire charge?
Please list any other events hosted by the Prime Minister at premier house since the Government’s formation.
Yours faithfully,
Jeremy Shaw
