Hon PEENI HENARE (Associate Minister of Housing (Māori Housing)): Alongside my colleagues Ministers Woods, Jackson, and Whaitiri, this morning we signed a new investment partnership between Government and Ngāti Kahungunu to build up to 131 new homes for whānau who need them the most. This partnership will see affordable rentals and papakāinga being built throughout the Ngāti Kahungunu rohe, getting whānau into dry, warm homes quickly, as well as helping some reconnect to their whenua. The partnership represents an innovative new approach to unlocking and enabling by Māori, for Māori housing solutions, and is funded from the Whai Kāinga Whai Oranga Government's record $730 million commitment to accelerate Māori-led housing solutions. We know that innovative initiatives like this are critical for getting a lot more new housing built where it is needed the most, and they will also help stimulate regional economies and our construction sector to recover from COVID-19.
