    They have said they will build state houses, but they haven’t elaborated on how much and what level of funding they’ll allocate to do it.

    All their housing policy seems to mention is cutting the Kainga Ora land acquisition fund to help pay for their ‘build for growth’ policy (I. E. Giving councils funding for new houses to incentives them to be more accommodating to new housing, not a bad idea in of itself on the face of it tbh)

    National produced negative state houses last time they were in government and presided over the massive sell off in the 90s. I do not trust their words over their track record on this.

    Incidentally, when googling their housing policy to check this, I got this which isn’t related but made me lol.
