New Zealand programme delivery verification pending
The canonical New Zealand programme catalogue is not yet mature enough for city-level delivery claims. Institution or campus presence is never used to infer programme delivery; a programme will appear only after explicit offering-to-campus evidence is verified.
The catalogue gap is shown as verification pending rather than “0 programmes”.
