37660 (2025). Francisco Hernandez to the Minister for Māori Crown Relations: Te Arawhiti: What graduate programmes, if any, have been established in the Minister’s departments, agencies, crown entities and any other bodies that the Minister is responsible for, if any, since 27 November 2023 and when, if ever, was that graduate programme established?

Hon Tama Potaka: This question relates to periods before and after the transfer of the Māori Crown Relations functions from Te Arawhiti to Te Puni Kōkiri on 24 February 2025. For the period since 23 November 2023 until 23 February 2025 I am advised that Te Puni Kōkiri consulted Ministry of Justice as it does not hold this information. The Ministry of Justice reply is that no graduate programmes were established at Te Arawhiti during this period. For the period since 24 February 2025, I refer the Member to my answer to written question 37664 (2025).
