Government funding to HRC to tackle racism
D. Sal. made this Official Information request to Human Rights Commission
This request has an unknown status. We're waiting for D. Sal. to read a recent response and update the status.
From: D. Sal.
Hi
In the cabinet paper released in March 2021 (and found here https://dpmc.govt.nz/sites/default/files...) , it stated:
"Increase the capacity of the Human Rights Commission:
The HRC is engaging with the community to better understand what particular
aspects would be most useful and appreciated by the public in order for them
to strengthen their response to hate speech, racism and discrimination"
Can you please provide the following information:
1. How much funding has HRC received from Government in relation to the above?
2. When was the funding received?
3. Since the publishing of the royal commission of inquiry report, what engagements has the HRC undertaken specifically focused on "what would be most useful and appreciated by the public in order for the HRC to strengthen their response to hate speech, racism and discrimination"
4. Since the funding has been received, what work by the Commission has been undertaken to strengthen their response to hate speech, racism, and discrimination, and how has that response changed from 2020 and earlier years?
We'd appreciate full transparency and honesty in this matter.
Thank you,
Anthony M.
