Answer

Kānoa – Regional Economic Development & Investment Unit (Kānoa) is currently undertaking the contract closure process. Any unspent funding will remain with the fund’s administrator, Kānoa, and could be reprioritised and reallocated, or returned by the Ministry of Business, Innovation, and Employment to Treasury, as required.
