Answer

I am advised that the Ministry of Social Development is unable to provide the information sought by the member within a written parliamentary question timeframe as it would take substantial effort and require the Ministry to divert personnel from their core duties. In accordance with Speaker’s Ruling 210/6, I consider that the time, and hence the expense, of answering this question within this timeframe is not in the public interest. This is also my response to WPQ 33113 (2026)
