36310 (2025). Hon Willow-Jean Prime to the Associate Minister of Education: How many, if any, school lunches were delivered late during the week of July 21st 2025, expressed as an overall number?

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 or weekly basis. I am advised by the Ministry that all 512,243 meals provided by the School Lunch Collective in the week beginning 21 July 2025, were successfully delivered. One school experienced a 10-minute delay due to a delivery vehicle’s mechanical issue en route. The school was notified at the time.
