Title

Commission independent feasibility and co-design work for He Ara Angitū

Request

That the House of Representatives urge the Government to commission and fund an independent feasibility and co-design process for He Ara Angitū, covering legal, cultural, financial, privacy, safety, delivery, and evaluation review, before any pilot or wider implementation decision.

Reason

In the March 2026 quarter, 14.4 percent of 15–24-year-olds were not in employment, education, or training. He Ara Angitū is an unproven citizen proposal combining mentoring, recognition, and protected support for education and training. Independent Stage 0 work should determine whether it is safe, culturally legitimate, affordable, deliverable, and worth testing against alternatives.

This asks for Stage 0 only. It does not ask for pilot funding or national rollout funding.
