Open government is built on transparency, participation and accountability  - it’s a cornerstone of good government, supporting New Zealanders to have their say on what matters to them.

New Zealand is a signatory to the Open Government Partnership. It involves developing two-year Action Plans to improve openness and engagement between government and citizens.
