16885 (2026). Dr Lawrence Xu-Nan to the Associate Minister of Education: What support, if any, is currently, or will be, made available to ECE relief teachers from the government during the current fuel crisis?

Hon David Seymour: The Ministry of Education is working with Early Childhood Education (ECE) sector leaders to understand the impacts of the fuel situation on ECE services. I am considering what support might be needed to ensure these services can continue at all phases of the Fuel Response Plan.
