4. There are no substantive matters to be raised in relation to it, though the information will be useful as staff engage with the Museum on its annual levy process.

6. A copy of the Museum’s report has been provided to the Independent Māori Statutory Board, in line with the resolution of Finance and Performance that the Board has visibility of the Museum’s activities in relation to Māori outcomes.
