11332 (2024). Hon Barbara Edmonds to the Minister of Finance: Has the Treasury model for projecting future education spending been revised since Budget 2023, and if so, how?

Hon Nicola Willis: The Treasury does not have a dedicated model for projecting future education spending. The Treasury produces a Long-term Fiscal Statement every four years, which projects future spending in different sectors including education. The most recent Long-term Fiscal Statement was published in 2021 and can be found on Treasury’s website: https://www.treasury.govt.nz/sites/default/files/2021-09/ltfs-2021_2.pdf
