04 · What changed

How the main answer changed

The retired-renter answer kept its comparison of rent protections and housing supply. The Opportunity Party was described through financing for councils, iwi and housing providers, while the earlier pension-rate statement disappeared.

It did not establish a local housing placement or this renter’s pension entitlement.

The extracts compare the main Gemini answer on 23 and 26 October. Each opens the original answer from its own date. Other assistants' complete answers are available above.
