35896 (2025). Hon Willow-Jean Prime to the Associate Minister of Education: How many lunches, if any, that were meant to serve specific dietary or religious needs did not meet those needs during the week of July 14th 2025?

Hon David Seymour: The Ministry of Education (the Ministry) does not track lunches across all suppliers and internal meal providers in the programme on a daily basis. I am advised by the Ministry that the School Lunch Collective, which delivers meals to 43 percent (436) of schools in the programme, met all dietary needs in the week of 14 July. This is also my response to written parliamentary question 35897 (2025).
