Thank you for your patience while we compile the full board meeting
minutes for TEC from January 2019 to February 2022.
As you know, we issued a decision on 13 April 2022 confirming that we will
be releasing the information with an expected date of 13 May 2022.
Unfortunately, the impact of COVID and the need for consultation has meant
that we will not be able to meet the timeframe we set ourselves. We offer
our apologies and can assure you we will provide the documents without due
delay.

Dear Ministerial Requests,
Thank you Di, much appreciated. Can you please help me inform the TEC board that I would encourage them to regularly publish their meeting minutes on their website to ensure public transparency. A lot of other government agencies already doing it as a regular practice. Thank you for your help.
Yours sincerely,
john luke
