55910 (2025). Hon Willow-Jean Prime to the Associate Minister of Education: How many lunches that were meant to serve specific dietary or religious needs did not meet those needs during the week of November 24th 2025?

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 24 November 2025, the School Lunch Collective delivered 383,659 lunches. Of these, the Ministry was not advised of any meals that did not meet the required dietary or religious needs of students.
