Answer

Funding decisions under Vote Māori Development are made by Te Puni Kōkiri under delegated powers from the Minister for Māori Development in accordance with Section 58(1) and Schedule 6 of the Public Service Act 2020. I have not approved any housing-related funding decisions since 27 November 2023.
