43284 (2025). Hon Kieran McAnulty to the Associate Minister of Housing: Further to his response to question 39221 (2025), what is the total number of households expected to be supported by the Social Outcomes Contracting Trial over its two-year duration?
Hon Tama Potaka: There is no projected total number of households that this trial will support. Providers are funded to support a total of 60 households at any one time. If the households already in service require less support and/or exit the trial, providers will bring more households into the trial as their capacity allows. Officials advise me that by the end of July 2025, there had been a total of 74 households supported through the trial, since it began in November 2025.
