$1.888 Billion Maori funding -
April 20 - April 21

This new race-based spending, identified from articles compiled here > https://kiwi-frontline.proboards.com/board/85/funding-race-based is on top of existing spending as detailed here > https://breakingviewsnz.blogspot.com/2013/11/mike-butler-no-retreat-on-race-based.html

Budget appropriations since last year’s Budget for Health, Education, Social Development, and Housing should also be included.

Maori Affairs is the biggie with funding for Maori language, Whanau Ora, and treaty settlements.

There are also the Maori health provider of which there were 177 such providers in the 2012-13 year which received funding that totalled $95.23-million in that year.

The $1.888 billion identified would be on top of the $2.86 billion in 2013 dollars.

Roughly, an eye watering $5 billion total for just one year would be a fair estimate.

As well as being race-based funding this set-up is crony capitalism in which “businesses thrive not as a result of risk, but rather as a return on money amassed through a nexus between a business class and the political class”.
