Ngarewa-Packer Debbie; Davidson MaramaDEBBIE NGAREWA-PACKER (Co-Leader—Te Paati Māori): Tēnā koe Mr Chair. Tēnā kōrua. Ka te tū ahau ki te pātai atu e pā ana ki tā tātou whare e te tuahine me kōrero i ngā wā katoa. [Greetings Mr Chair. Thank you. I stand to ask questions about housing to you sister questions that should always be discussed.]How many recommendations—tēnā kōrua—out of the 20 from the cross-party inquiry into homelessness that was initiated by Labour the Greens and the Māori Party in 2016 have been implemented by this Government if any? How many homes out of the 1000 that were committed to Māori at last year's Budget through Whai Kāinga have been built to date? A couple more questions: of the 41000 whānau homeless in Aotearoa how many of them are of Māori descent? How many children and rangatahi attending primary school or high school in Aotearoa are homeless and what resources have been committed to specifically address Māori homelessness? Kia ora koutou.Hon MARAMA DAVIDSON (Associate Minister of Housing (Homelessness)): Tēnā koe. Thank you Mr Chair. Thank you very much to the member Ms Debbie Ngarewa-Packer for a really important question. So I first want to acknowledge that I don't have right in front of me the information that relates directly to that homeless inquiry out of Parliament's homelessness inquiry that I was very proud to be a part of alongside Te Paati Māori and Labour. What is very clear—and I know Minister Woods will talk to the Māori-specific housing that was absolutely asked for throughout that inquiry and across communities—is that is one of the upstanding approaches that this Government that we haven't ever seen before. And I know that Minister Woods will pick that up because Minister Henare is not here but in terms of preventing further homelessness where as the Minister already mentioned it is disproportionately Māori and Māori whānau who are impacted on by homelessness more Māori-led housing not just responses to homelessness is one of the key prevention approaches for preventing even more Māori homelessness.In terms of the homelessness-specific response to Māori I know how important it was that my Budget 2022 allocation of $25 million specifically—now that's not all of Māori housing that is specifically for kaupapa Māori tangata whenua responses and approaches to homelessness—was something that the community made really clear that iwi and Māori made really clear was going to be important in ongoing and enduring work when it comes to providing the correct wraparound support the social services—not just the whare and the housing itself but the actual wraparound support. Further to that in the rangatahi homelessness space it again is rangatahi Māori who are disproportionately impacted on and are facing some of the harshest homelessness challenges. So again $20 million-plus for more supported youth housing and for youth-supported transitional housing was something that the community again made really clear; it was brought through in that previous homelessness inquiry out of Parliament also.So I am really proud to be picking up those particular solutions as part of the homelessness action plan and bringing that focus for Māori and rangatahi homelessness to the fore in Budgets and also in immediate action and long-term actions in the Homelessness Action Plan which I'm hoping to further expand on once I pass back to Minister Woods as well.
