You can expect to receive a response to your request on or before 31 March

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
[1][email address].

 

If you are dissatisfied with our response, you have the right, under
