Hon WILLIE JACKSON: I recently visited Kaingaroa Forest, Murupara, and Minginui, where I saw firsthand the difference this programme is making for our rural Māori communities. In Kaingaroa Village, for example, I was invited into one of the homes by one of the ladies there, one of our kuia there, where I was told the difference that having a new roof and having the house rewired had made to her wellbeing and three generations of the one family who were living there. She said that the change in lifestyle was immense and that the whānau would never have been in a financial position to do the repairs themselves. We have reroofed and rewired over 90 homes in this little village, and, alongside other economic investments, the spring is starting to return in the steps of those who have called the village home for many years.
