Dear Department of the Prime Minister and Cabinet,

1)
Within the DPMC,
are there any current positions of employment (or contracted service)
which required, as an absolute necessity or as a preference -
that the applicant held NZ citizenship, or citizenship of either the UK, Canada, Australia or the US,
as a prerequisite to processing their application for emplyment,
or engaging in contract with
and if so,
what are those positions/roles
and what are/were those requirements or preferences?

2)
Among senior positions (in state entities) with a statutory or other obligation to report to the DPMC, does the DPMC have any expectations around the citizenship status of the personnel holding those positions, and if so, what are those expectations, and of which positions?

A brief, but complete summary on both questions will be fine, if that will prove less onerous

Yours faithfully, and thank you.
Kilian O'Gorman
