75356 (2024). Francisco Hernandez to the Minister for Tertiary Education and Skills: What courses, if any, that were offered this year are not being offered or are being consulted on not to be offered next year at Open Polytechnic?

Hon Penny Simmonds: Te Pūkenga is currently undertaking substantial work to improve the financial viability of its former institute of technology and polytechnic (ITP) business divisions. As part of this work, each business division’s course offering is being reviewed. I am aware some business divisions have already begun consulting on programme changes. However, this is an operational matter and the responsibility of Te Pūkenga. This is also my response to written parliamentary questions 75357, 75359, 75361, 75362, 75363, 75364, 75365, 75368, 75369, 75370, 75372, 75373.
