Overview

Defence White Paper 2015 – Seeking the Views of New Zealand’s Defence Industry

The Government has directed that a review of its defence policy be conducted over the course of 2015.

The Defence White Paper 2010 represented the first comprehensive articulation of New Zealand’s defence policy this century. Since publication it has provided Defence with the direction it needs to be able to effectively prioritise the roles and tasks it undertakes, both at home and overseas, and guide the modernisation of many of the Defence Force’s military capabilities.

Defence White Paper 2015 Public Consultation Information

The public consultation process provides New Zealanders with the opportunity to give their views on the future security challenges facing the nation; the appropriate roles for our armed forces in responding to these challenges; and the capabilities that are most likely to be required to fulfil these. The results of these consultations will inform the development of the Defence White Paper 2015. The views of New Zealand’s defence industry are crucial element of this process.
