42751 (2025). Hon Willow-Jean Prime to the Associate Minister of Education: How many, if any, school lunches were delivered late during the week of August 25th 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. During the week of 25 August 2025, the School Lunch Collective (SLC) delivered 495,139 lunches and informed the Ministry that one school received lunches late. This is also my response to written parliamentary question 42746 (2025).
