We asked the Minister about Kāinga Ora's building programme. In March 2021 the Government announced a housing reset including $3.8 billion for the Housing Acceleration Fund to unlock more land. Kāinga Ora was granted an additional $2 billion of lending to acquire and develop land to increase housing supply. We noted from June 2021 to May 2022 that there was a net gain of 21 new houses. The Minister told us that the Infrastructure Acceleration Fund (IAF) funding was going into infrastructure development and that there will be 1,815 homes completed shortly. The Minister emphasised that a decade of under-investment by the previous Government and inadequate infrastructure had been a sizable barrier. We heard that the Infrastructure Acceleration Fund represents the biggest Government spend in infrastructure since the 1970s. We heard that 35 proposals are being considered and are expected to increase homes by another 35,000. The Minister acknowledged significant constraints and delays through COVID, in particular in Auckland, but said she is still pleased with the pace of delivery.
