Answer

I am advised that providing the Member with this information would require a considerable amount of time to collate. Therefore, in accordance with Speaker’s ruling 210/6, I consider that the time and expense of answering the Member’s question is not in the public interest. However, I can confirm that information on office leases used by Kāinga Ora and the Ministry of Housing and Urban Development has previously been provided in its responses to Annual Reviews, which are publicly available on Parliament’s website.
