Hon NANAIA MAHUTA: Operation Whakahokinga Mai at times numbered more than 100 public servants from several agencies and in several countries. As part of Operation Whakahokinga Mai, the Afghanistan Departure Task force within the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Trade (MFAT) played a key role in facilitating travel documentation, accommodation, and flights for those eligible for assistance. Managed isolation and quarantine access and resettlement services were organised by the Ministry of Business, Innovation and Employment and were activated upon arrival to New Zealand. This was an intense operation for all those who were involved. The success of the operation was also made possible by the cooperation and hard work of many community advocates who engaged with the taskforce on a regular basis. I'm also grateful for the support from our partner countries, who played an important role in helping us to get our people safely from Afghanistan to Aotearoa. Due to the difficult circumstances in Afghanistan and the lack of commercial flights, the approach taken to support eligible people under Operation Whakahokinga Mai was unprecedented. This included extensive support for issuing visas, documentation, transit, and paying for flights and accommodation that went above and beyond regular consular support provided to New Zealanders overseas.
