Answer

I am advised that the Ministry of Education has not yet set a budget for the Carbon Neutral Government Programme for the 2026 calendar year. NZQA budgeted $10,000 on the carbon neutral government programme for the 2025/2026 financial year ENZ budgeted $15,700 on the carbon neutral government programme for the 2025/26 financial year. ERO budgeted over the financial year, and budgeted $12,500 across the 23/24, 24/25, and 25/26 periods for the Carbon Neutral Government Programme.
