39343 (2025). Hon Kieran McAnulty to the Minister of Health: How many people, if any, were discharged from hospital to "no fixed abode" or shelters from September 2023 to July 2025, broken down by month and hospital?

Hon Simeon Brown: I am advised that Health New Zealand is only able to extract the most recent address of a patient from its system, not the address at the time of past discharge, for example.
