4017 (2024). Rt Hon Chris Hipkins to the Prime Minister

4017 (2024). Rt Hon Chris Hipkins to the Prime Minister: Does he stand by his statement “Well, look, it's- I mean, it's not ideal. It's not what we ideally want. And we want to be able to do it and be able to pay people weekly. The systems don't support doing that…” and if so, what advice, by title and date, has he received on reimbursing early childhood education costs to parents?

Rt Hon Christopher Luxon: I refer the Member to reply number 4012 (2024)
