04 · What they were told

How the assistants handled this voter's main question

Older-renter advice adds support available now while losing precise rent-control detail.

5 October: The comparison specified the Greens’ 2% cap, no-cause tenancy rules and ACT’s opposition to controls, alongside senior housing proposals.

12 October: NZ First and Opportunity lead the comparison; ACT is not named. The answer adds Accommodation Supplement, Temporary Additional Support and social-housing routes.

Immediate support becomes more actionable, but the named-party and tenancy-rule comparison is less complete. The wider chapter distinguishes existing assistance from future promises.

The excerpts compare Gemini’s national answers to this voter’s main question on 5 and 12 October. The figures above include all produced answers for this situation. Each extract opens its dated original answer.
