Protocol for false allegations
Leah Trass made this Official Information request to Ministry of Social Development
The request was successful.
From: Leah Trass
Dear Ministry of Social Development,
Under the OIA ACT I have some questions for you:
When information held on cyfs computer system is found to be a false allegation or incorrect what is the protocol for its removal from the system or input of fact or correction.
Is information proven to be incorrect deleted off system?.
What is the time period given for information uploaded into computer that allows for corrections to be made before they become permanent?
Yours faithfully,
Leigh Bailllie

Based on the response it is good to know that MSD/CYF can be easily used for raising false allegations and moreover such information never removed from the records with the use of MSD as an active agent for defamatory and harassment purpose.
