24718 (2025). Francisco Hernandez to the Minister of Housing

24718 (2025). Francisco Hernandez to the Minister of Housing: What was the net change, if any, of all roles in the Minister’s departments, agencies, crown entities and any other bodies that the Minister is responsible for, if any, between 30 May 2024 and 22 May 2025, listed by job title and number of roles under each job title?

Hon Chris Bishop: This information for the Ministry of Housing and Urban Development will be provided in the 2025/26 Estimates Exam for Vote Housing and Urban Development and will be published soon. In accordance with Speaker’s Ruling 210/6, I consider that the time, and hence expense, of answering these questions earlier than planned cannot be justified as a matter of public interest. Kāinga Ora – Homes and Communities advises me that the net reduction in roles was 797. I refer the Member to the attached list by job title.
