224A: Annual report on performance of Tribunal's functions

You could also call this:

“Yearly summary of Tribunal's work and decisions sent to Ministers and Parliament”

Each year, the person in charge of the Immigration and Protection Tribunal must write a report about how the Tribunal did its job in the past financial year. This report goes to three important people: the Minister of Justice, the Minister of Immigration, and the Minister for Courts.

The report needs to include two main things. First, it must say how many decisions the Tribunal made. Second, it must explain what kinds of decisions these were.

After the Minister of Justice gets this report, they have to show it to the House of Representatives as soon as they can. The House of Representatives is where New Zealand’s lawmakers meet.
