Answer

I am advised that due to information not being centrally recorded, the Ministry of Social Development is unable to provide the information requested by the Member within a written parliamentary timeframe as it would take substantial manual collation diverting staff from their core duties. In accordance with the Speaker’s Ruling 210/6, I consider that the time, and hence the expense, of answering this part of the Member’s questions is not in the public interest This is also my response to WPQ 28050 (2026)
