58856 (2025). Mike Davidson to the Minister of Internal Affairs: How many properties have been affected or damaged by longer callout times from Fire and Emergency New Zealand due to the continued closure of Hutt City Fire Station in 2021, if any?

Hon Brooke van Velden: I am advised by Fire and Emergency that it is not possible to know how incidents might have turned out differently if Hutt City Fire Station had remained open.
