51558 (2025). Hon Willow-Jean Prime to the Associate Minister of Education: How many, if any, school lunches were not delivered during the week of October 20th 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 20 October 2025, the Ministry was advised of one school where blocked roads prevented lunches (including 15 dietary meals) from being delivered and alternative arrangements were made. This is also my response to written parliamentary question 51548 (2025).
