Written Question

59248 (2025). Hon Kieran McAnulty to the Associate Minister of Housing: Did the Minister request advice on the specific months of July, August, September, October, and November 2025 when responding to Question 56439 (2025); if not, why not?
Hon Tama Potaka: No. The Ministry of Social Development (the Ministry) has advised me that the information is based on an exploratory model looking at subsequent housing supports for clients, accessed up to 60 days after an emergency housing stay ended. This means the output is only available after a set period.
The Ministry generates this information quarterly to give additional context to Target 8 reporting to DPMC. The most recent results are at June 2025.
Figures for the September 2025 month end will be provided in the December 2025 Target 8 reporting. This information should be available around late January or early February 2026. As this information is generated quarterly, there will be no outputs for October and November 2025.
