Answer

As this relates to a shared service provided to The Office of Treaty Settlements and Takutai Moana–Te Tari Whakatau by the Ministry of Justice, and there is no further relevant information, I refer the Member to my reply in WPQ 38739 (2026). The Ngāpuhi Investment Fund did not spend any money in the 2023/24 financial year on artificial intelligence, including costs on training staff, deploying systems, maintaining systems and any other associated costs.
