Funding for 2010-2011 (the fourth year of the project) has been confirmed at $4.2 million, which will enable a further 1,400 homes to be retrofitted in Northland.

The Healthy Homes Tai Tokerau project was launched in March 2008 with an initial aim of insulating 4,000 Northland homes within five years.  A total of 1,973 homes in the Tai Tokerau region have been retrofitted from 2008 to date.  In the last year 887 houses were retrofitted, of those 739 (83%) had identified health issues.
