Answer

I spoke to the Chief Executive of the Ministry of Social Development on Monday 29 June 2026 to confirm operational responsibilities. The Ministry of Social Development is responsible for providing help for people who need emergency housing by paying an emergency housing grant to clients who meet the policy criteria.
