Additional info

I'm not sure how best to find this stuff to back this up, sorry, but from memory there have been other Ministers for Auckland (or Minister for Auckland Issues), so this isn't a *new* role, it is just a role that has been revived. Judith Tizard was "Minister assisting the Prime Minister on Auckland issues": 10 December 1999 - 15 August 2002. This could be a point to help flesh out the article.

As a way to link the article in with others, I think this is in response to the 2023 North Island floods but haven't found a media article stating it outright. Will keep looking. Spil030 (talk) 04:35, 31 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Tizard was:

Minister assisting the Prime Minister on Auckland issues: 10 December 1999 - 15 August 2002
Minister for Auckland Issues: 15 August 2002 - 31 October 2007 .[1]

If there isn't a reliable source for it, this article can't say that. Schwede 66 23:20, 31 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]
