44855 (2025). Shanan Halbert to the Minister for Vocational Education

44855 (2025). Shanan Halbert to the Minister for Vocational Education: What evidence, if any, has the Minister seen that the new vocational education and training model will be more financially viable long-term compared to Te Pūkenga’s model?

Hon Penny Simmonds: I have received a range of advice on the work being undertaken by Te Pūkenga and the individual ITP business divisions to improve their financial performance. This will enable them to be established as financially viable entities and better to deliver into their communities.
