42035 (2025). Dr Tracey McLellan to the Minister of Corrections: How many Māori or Pacific cultural programmes (tikanga, kapa haka, etc.) were delivered at Mt Eden in the 12 months to July 2025?

Hon Mark Mitchell: I am advised that Mt Eden Corrections Facility is a remand prison, and therefore has a high turnover of prisoners, with many prisoners spending a short period of time there. I am further advised that in the 12 months to July 2025, Mt Eden Corrections Facility delivered five different types of Māori or Pacific cultural programmes.
