Māori Trustee adds to housing repair pūtea
The Māori Trustee is putting $2 million to boost a Māori Housing Network programme which helps whānau in Te Tai Tokerau and Te Tai Rāwhiti repair houses.
Māori Trustee Dr Charlotte Severne says the partnership signed with new Te Puni Kōkiri head Dave Samuels is the first of many more initiatives.
Māori Development Minister Nanaia Mahuta says the housing repairs programme has already changed the lives of almost 1000 whānau across the motu.
It has improved health, employment and social outcomes for whānau, happy children and kaumātua.
