40756 (2025). Hon Willow-Jean Prime to the Associate Minister of Education: How many, if any, school lunches were not delivered during the week of August 18th 2025, expressed as an overall number?
Hon David Seymour: I am advised that the Ministry of Education (the Ministry) does not track lunches across all suppliers and internal meal providers in the programme on a weekly basis. During the week of 18 August 2025, the Ministry was not advised of any undelivered lunches by suppliers. However, the School Lunch Collective informed the Ministry that one school received fewer lunches than they had ordered.
