Subject: Official Information Act request - Failure to disclose all relevant information

Dear Ministry of Social Development,

Can you please confirm under the OIA that CYFS case workers and care and protection staff must reveal all potential conflicts of interest before taking part in an FGC.

Can you also confirm under the OIA what the legal timeframe is for a CYFS case worker or CYFS care and protection staff to inform superiors that there was a potential conflict of interest.

Yours faithfully,

Scott Dalton
