Further to his reply to Written Parliamentary Question 55045 (2025), did the briefing he received from Kāinga Ora in March 2025 recommend transferring $26.9 million of IAF funding from the stormwater project to the City Link Bridge, or did it recommend only the consolidation of two stormwater projects into one, and was a variation request form that included the City Link Bridge transfer attached to or referenced in that briefing?
