Hon WILLIE JACKSON (Minister for Māori Development): Tēnā koe, Mr Speaker. Kia ora tātou. I've received an update on Pae Aronui, delivered through Te Puni Kōkiri. Pae Aronui trials innovative methods to grow the confidence, capability, and connectedness of rangatahi—of young people. They're some of our most disconnected young people, who come from some incredibly tough backgrounds. In fact, I've had some of the Opposition members join me to see the success we've had on some of these courses. I'm pleased to share with the House that of the 275 young people in year two, 94 percent have successfully completed the programme. So far in year three, of the 200 young people engaged, 89 have already gained employment, and 47 have re-engaged with education. I'm incredibly proud of our young people and providers in our Pae Aronui programmes—a number of them Pākehā providers too, and I give a lot of credit to them in terms of putting their hands up and working with this really tough group of people.
