Subject: Official Information request - External Advisory Groups

Dear New Zealand Qualifications Authority,

I noted on your website, you have these External Advisory Groups

https://www.nzqa.govt.nz/about-us/our-st...

May I have the member's name and their bio for each of these External Advisory Groups? Also, I would like to know what their remuneration package and are there any term of reference of job description for their roles?

Further, how they are selected and how long they have been appointed for? Can public nominate people to these groups and are these appointment made by relevant Minster?

Yours faithfully,

john luke

Kia ora John

Thank you for your request under the Official Information Act 1982 of 27 September 2019 seeking the following information:

....about the External Advisory Groups listed on the NZQA website and the members' names and the bio for each of these External Advisory Groups? Also, I would like to know what their remuneration package and are there any terms of reference or job description for their roles? Further, how they are selected and how long they have been appointed for? Can public nominate people to these groups and are these appointment made by relevant Minster?

You can expect to receive a response to your request on or before 25 October 2019. You will be contacted again if there is a likelihood that this timeframe cannot be met.

As you may know requests for official information become official information once received. As part of the processing of requests for official information, NZQA may need to consult with relevant third parties. During the consultation, a third party may ask for the identity of the individual/organisation requesting the information. If you are an individual making a request, please advise us whether or not you would have an objection to disclosing your identity if a third party asks for your identity, and the reasons for your objection. If you are an individual making a request on behalf of an organisation please advise us both whether you personally have an objection to disclosing your identity, and the reasons for your objection, as well as any objection to identifying the organisation, together with reasons. NZQA will consider your reasons and whether they fit with any withholding grounds under the Privacy Act 1993 or the Official Information Act 1982.

For any enquiries about your request, please contact [email address].

If you are dissatisfied with our response, you have the right, under section 28(3) of the Official Information Act 1982, to lodge a complaint with the Office of the Ombudsman at www.ombudsman.parliament.nz. You can also telephone 0800 802 502 or write to the Ombudsman at PO Box 10152, Wellington, 6143.

Ngā mihi
