38024 (2025). Hon Kieran McAnulty to the Minister of Housing

38024 (2025). Hon Kieran McAnulty to the Minister of Housing: What was the gross increase in public and supported housing at Kāinga Ora or its predecessors in each financial year between 2001/02 and 2024/25, broken down by Redevelopments – Social homes, Redevelopments – Supported homes, Redevelopments – Total, Acquire New – Public homes, Acquire New – Total, Gross Newly Constructed Homes, Acquire Existing – Social homes, Acquire Existing – Supported homes, Total Other Additions, and Gross Increase in Public and Supported Housing?

Hon Chris Bishop: I refer the Member to the attached table provided by Kāinga Ora – Homes and Communities, based on available data sourced from its Annual Reports, in addition to Housing New Zealand Annual Reports. Due to variations in the reporting of data in Annual Reports over time, it was not possible to provide all the information requested. Attempting to compile full tables to the level of detail requested would divert a significant amount of staff resources from their core duties. In accordance with Speaker's Ruling 210/6, I consider that the time, and hence the expense, of answering the Member's question is not in the public interest.
