Answer

This question relates to periods before and after the transfer of the Māori Crown Relations functions from the then Te Arawhiti to Te Puni Kōkiri on 24 February 2025. For the period since 1 July 2021 until 23 February 2025, I refer the Member to Hon Paul Goldsmith's answer to written question 10042 (2026). For the period since 24 February 2025, I refer the Member to my answer to written question 10001 (2026).
