7523 (2025). Dr Lawrence Xu-Nan to the Associate Minister of Education: Has the School Lunch Collective (SLC) breached their contractual agreements with the Crown to "consider the safety, ethnic, and cultural needs of students" and to "ensure all eligible students/ākonga are included and can be catered for" when providing a school with 1 certified Halal meal for their 50 Muslim students; if not, does the Minister condone the SLC's actions and accept that schools are spending their own money and school staff are taking time out of their work day to supplement inadequate meals?
