Answer

In relation to the Office for Treaty Settlements and Takutai Moana-Te Tari Whakatau, as per Speaker’s Ruling 199/6, I do not consider it to be in the public interest to undertake an exercise to identify and collate the material requested, as it will require a significant diversion of resource. The Member may wish to consider asking a more specific question. In relation to Tupu Tonu - Ngāpuhi Investment Fund, I refer the Member to Attachment 1.
