On behalf of the Prime Minister of New Zealand, Rt Hon Christopher Luxon,
thank you for your email. Please accept this as acknowledgement that your
message has been received.
The Prime Minister’s Correspondence Unit will be closed over the Christmas
and New Year period until Monday 12 January 2026. Your email will be read

messages sent to the Prime Minister, it is not always possible to provide
a personal reply.
If the subject of your email is closely related to another ministerial
portfolio, we may refer you to the Minister who will be best placed to
review your message. If you have already included in your email the
Minister or agency responsible for the issue you have raised, your message
will be noted.
If you are a Botany resident writing about a local issue or a constituent
matter, or you are writing to Rt Hon Christopher Luxon in his capacity as
the MP for Botany, please contact the Botany Electorate Office at
[1][email address].
If your email is an invitation, a media query, or a request under the
Official Information Act, you will receive a further response in due
course.
Thank you again for taking the time to write. We wish you all the best
over the holiday season.
Kind regards,
Office of Rt Hon Christopher Luxon
