The Ministry of Housing and Urban Development (HUD; Māori: Te Tūāpapa Kura Kāinga) is a cabinet-level public service department responsible for overseeing the New Zealand Government's housing and urban development programme. It formally came into existence on 1 October 2018 and assumes the housing policy, funding and regulatory functions of the Ministry of Business, Innovation and Employment (MBIE), the Ministry of Social Development (MSD), and the New Zealand Treasury. It is headed by the Minister of Housing Chris Bishop.[1][3]

It is the New Zealand government’s primary advisor on housing and urban development, providing advice on policy and legislation, collecting and sharing data and insights to inform decisions, funding a range of programmes to deliver more housing and urban development where it is most needed, regulating community housing providers and monitoring Kāinga Ora and Tāmaki Regeneration Company.[1]
