Dear Albany Junior High School,

I'm requesting multiple pieces of information about Albany Junior High School funding and spending. This request should be treated as an Official Information Act request. Under the act, the entity that I'm requesting to, are legally obligated, to a certain extent, answer all of my questions within a reasonable time period.

The request of information is divided into 2 sections, and are independent of each other.

In this request:
"The school" refers to
- Boards, including BOT.
- Principals and Tumuaki.
- Administrators.
"Staff" refers to
- Teachers.
- Other employed facility staff.
"Public funding" refers to
- Funding by the Ministry of Education.
- Donations by parents.
- Any money received by school fund-raising.

1) Have The school or its Staff ever used Public funding to buy a motor vehicle (such as a car), either for the school's use or Staff use (or both)?. If yes, please provide all details regarding such vehicle(s), including the amount of that was spend, its maker, and its model, individually.
2) Have The school or its Staff ever used Public funding to buy a Staff coffee machine that is not generally accessible by students?. If yes, please provide all details regarding such machine(s), including the amount of that was spend, its maker, and its model, individually.

Yours faithfully,

Mr Zhu

Dear Bruce Wang,

As per the OIA act, the charges most be appropriate for the type of information requested. As this is a easy task, as you just need to look into The school cooperate financial statement and find such information.
As The school would normally submit such Financial statement to the Ministry of Education or relevant governing body, I would consider you to have access to digital format of The school Financial statement. So those task, should be relatively easy and fast task. As per the act, no authority may charge for Administrative
inefficiencies or poor record-keeping and charges occuring from labor that does not exceed 1 hour. To help you assist with the request visit this website: https://www.google.com/url?sa=t&sour...

As you are quite reluctant to submit such information, I would also like to request a digital copy of The school Financial statement, as a whole, in fiscal year 2017-2020.

"Financial statement" in this email refers to all of the document(s) that documents AJHS cash flow and transaction, this maybe; cooperate financial report (that details individual transactions), Account/bank statement, etc...

If you are unable to answer such request, I will be asking directly to Ministry of Education or a relevant governing body and/or making a complaint to Ombudsman.

Yours sincerely,

Mr. Zhu
