How the main answer changed
The learning-support answer separated Labour's staffing proposals, the Greens' coordination approach and Māori-led services more clearly than before. National remained the first party discussed.
The additional detail describes different approaches. It does not establish that the staff or services this family needs are available.
The extracts compare the main Gemini answer on 19 and 23 October. Each opens the original answer from its own date. Other assistants' complete answers are available above.
