About the information on this Site

While care has been taken to ensure what you find on this portal, and on the websites it links to, is complete, accurate and up to date as possible, we cannot accept responsibility for the quality, or accuracy, of information on external websites. An external site has an address that starts with www.[agency name].govt.nz or in some cases with names that end in org.nz, mil.nz, ac.nz or co.nz. These sites are not part of the portal itself. If the address starts with www.worksite.govt.nz then you are still on the portal site.

If you find something that you think may be wrong, get in touch with us and we will pass your comments on to the agency concerned. You should always consider carefully whether the information you find through this portal applies to you. If you are not sure, contact the government department providing the information, or get advice from someone you trust. Look for a page called "Contact us" on the agency's website. This will tell you who to contact and how to get in touch with them.
