Answer

I am advised by Te Puni Kōkiri that 43 staff concluded their employment with Te Puni Kōkiri by way of redundancy between 27 November 2023 and 5 June 2026. There were no voluntary redundancies during this period and none of the 43 staff have subsequently been appointed to a new role. The number of staff by month has been withheld to protect the privacy of individuals.
