Thank you to all who participated in the Crew and Supplier survey we have posted the results on the resource page.

The key findings were that there has been a significant reduction in production in 2025 compared with 2024 and more than 80% of crew have had inconsistent work in 2025 as of July 2025 and also do not have confirmed work opportunities for the rest of 2025. Overall there has been a reduction in production work of over 70%.

This supports our requests to MBIE and Minister Willis to make urgent changes to the international NZSPR settings to reactivate the global production pipeline in New Zealand.
