Social Security (Benefit Categories and Work Focus) Amendment Bill

Oral Submissions begin 28 November in Wellington. (This weeks meetings only)

Visitor access to select committee hearings in committee rooms 3 is through Parliament’s main entrance across the forecourt between Parliament House and the Beehive.

Only enter the committee room if an ‘open to the public’ sign is displayed. Wait outside if you cannot see the sign — the select committee may be discussing something in private, or their schedule may have changed at short notice.

Select committee meetings that are open to the public are shown on the schedule marked with an asterisk *.
