- If in government, the Greens would permanently fund Ka Ora, Ka Ako and restore meal delivery through schools or local providers.
- Expansion would cover schools with an Equity Index above 450; the Greens estimate about 400 additional schools.
- The Greens estimate restoring local provision could bring back up to 2,000 jobs, while expansion could create up to 1,900 more.
- The policy is costed at $472 million for 2027/28 and $602 million for 2030/31; David Seymour questioned the expense.
