Deplorable indeed when a government protects criminals rather than law abiding citizens.

And so the truth comes out because it was outed in a court document :
McKenzie confirmed there was "absolutely" a policy not to evict antisocial or disruptive clients.

This is a government which empowers and emboldens criminals rather than protect law abiding citizens.
Disgusting, repugnant and totally Clueless Cindy.
Transparent - that’s what the Cindy promised.
Well, she has delivered COVID for Christmas but not transparency :

Couldn't pay me to live in america.
Well maybe in oregon behind a gated community with a tough looking crew to dissuade the "law abiding gun owners".
from todays Herald
"The Government cannot say what it would take for a Kāinga Ora tenant to get kicked out of one of its houses".
Apparently there have been no evictions for Three Years!
Not sure about Salt Lake City, but I have been frequently to Singapore and guided by locals. I remember a very green city with amazing plant and animal life and (surprisingly) amazing nature parks and untouched wetlands. I have seen on my hikes over there (in free nature) beautiful birds, monkeys, large reptiles as well as snakes. Singapore has as well a quite nice beach as well as amazing cultural buildings and living quarters. Great orchestra, by the way.
I like the small and larger market places, the ethnic food ... and hey - yes the food in general is amazing over there ... but I guess this is something which might be less appealing to somebody with British roots. Just imagine ... fresh and well prepared food with real taste, no matter whether you like to eat Indian food, Malay food, Chinese food or even European specialities.
Pondering on that last paragraph ... I can now see why you don't like the town :p ;
You can't mention mental health, or 'KiwiBuild', or the housing crisis (tens of thousands livings in motels or worse), or the housing affordability crisis, or the lack of ICU beds.....looks like Cindy only wants a narrow focus on COVID because that is where she can project some purported 'crisis manager' skills. The total and utter failure of the government on all fronts is apparent but off-limits for discussion.
And Poto Williams, one of the most useless human beings around, continues to dig herself deeper with denials and inability to answer the simplest of questions - because like Kris Useless Faafoi, she is clueless like her leader.

The Government cannot say what it would take for a Kāinga Ora tenant to get kicked out of one of its houses.
It denies having a hard-line "no eviction" policy despite not evicting any Kāinga Ora tenants in the past three years.
Associate Minister of Housing Poto Williams says evictions do happen in "very rare circumstances" but could not detail what these circumstances would be.
When RNZ put a fairly serious example to her, grievous bodily harm, Williams could not say if this would warrant an eviction.
"It's speculative. You can say a lot of things. I can't judge that because I don't know, that's not a situation I'm aware of. That would probably require a police intervention and a charge of some sort I would have thought."
Seems Minister Poto Williams was not aware Kainga Ora had a no eviction policy until Nicola Willis in the House yesterday pointed to evidence given in the Tenancy Tribunal by KO that it is so and the CEO confirmed that today. (Tenancy Tribunal cases 4222149, 4223461 - worth a read unless inclined to the apoplectic.)
Meanwhile, COVID Santa Cindy delivers an early Christmas gift of COVID to Wellington.
