Hon CARMEL SEPULONI (Minister for Social Development and Employment): Jobseeker support is there for New Zealanders who need it and qualify. As at the end of December 2017, there were a total of 48,582 receiving jobseeker support for longer than two years. Of those, 29,031 received a health and disability exemption, and 19,551 were considered work-ready. As at December 2021, there were 77,928 receiving a jobseeker benefit for two years or more. Of those, 45,165 received the health and disability exemption, and 32,763 were considered work-ready—a difference of 13,212 work-ready clients on jobseeker. We have come through COVID-19 in much better shape than we did the global financial crisis (GFC), due to the Government's quick actions. We're now seeing more people move off benefit and into employment than any time since electronic records began. This trend has continued in the first quarter of the year, and I'm looking forward to the Ministry of Social Development publishing the March quarter results later this month.
