13918 (2026). Hon Willie Jackson to the Minister for Māori Development: How does he intend to ensure that Te Puni Kōkiri retains sufficient information systems capability to safeguard the ministry's data and operational continuity following the proposed cuts to that function?

Hon Tama Potaka: This is an operational matter for Te Puni Kōkiri and the Secretary for Māori Development. I am advised final decisions on Te Ara Whakamua | The Way Forward 2026 (Corporate and Risk & Assurance) have yet to be made.
