We are publishing proposal and decision documents for MBIE departmental changes dated from August 2023 onwards. Some documents may contain redacted information.

Our strategic intentions / statement of intent describes our role and function in the public sector; the outcomes we aim to achieve in support of the Government and New Zealand; and how success will be measured.
New Zealand’s natural environment is important to our sense of identity and has great cultural and recreational significance. It also supports much economic activity.
By setting rules and defining rights, MBIE allows business to operate effectively while protecting consumers from harm. MBIE supports consumers, tenants, landlords, workers and businesses by providing information and services. We help to set and enforce market rules and regulations across a range of areas, including the building and construction market and telecommunications sector.
People need work that provides fair pay. But work is more than simply income; it can also give people a sense of purpose and allow them to develop skills, experience and social connections.
Our strategic intentions are underpinned by our purpose and outcomes framework. To pursue these goals, MBIE focuses on five outcome areas. This section of the report provides information on our progress towards these outcomes.
MBIE can make the most impact by coordinating and sharing information within our organisation, across government and with industry and communities.
MBIE is a large ministry entrusted with a big responsibility – to grow New Zealand’s economy and to share the benefits with everyone who lives here. MBIE is working towards delivering an integrated approach to both regulation and service delivery, leveraging our size and scope.
