flag New Zealand weighs "move-on" orders for Auckland’s homeless, sparking debate over enforcement vs. housing-first solutions.

flag New Zealand’s government is considering "move-on" orders to address rough sleeping in central Auckland, though no formal decisions or legislation have been made. flag While officials emphasize safety and coordination, housing advocates warn such measures could displace homeless people without solving root causes like mental health, addiction, and lack of shelter. flag They urge expansion of proven solutions like the Housing First model, which provides immediate housing and support. flag The government has committed to 300 new social homes and $10 million in support funding, but implementation remains limited. flag Critics stress that enforcement-focused approaches risk worsening outcomes and call for compassionate, evidence-based strategies.
