Thank you for your OIA request which was partially transferred from the
Department of Internal Affairs  on 12 July 2022 for:

Ministers of the Crown have overall responsibility for Crown funded
schemes and report to the Cabinet as appropriate.  The Department of
Internal Affairs receives an annual appropriation for grants for each fund
from the Crown.  Each fund was established to achieve specific Crown
purposes and objectives.

Funds are distributed on the recommendations or decisions of independent
panels, steering groups or committees.

 

Disarmament Education United Nations Implementation Fund (DEUNIF)

 

Can you please provide the name for current member of above Crown funded
schemes listed. Bio and term of appointment (expired date for each member)
for each members of each schemes if available. Also, member's pay rate and
how did you call for public expression of interest to these roles.

 

This email confirms receipt of your request and advises that we will
respond to it as soon as reasonably practicable, and in terms of the
timeframes and requirements of the OIA.

 

Please also be advised that the organisational impacts of implementing the
COVID-19 Protection Framework, together with the Ministry’s leadership of
the Government's response to Russia's invasion of Ukraine, mean that we
may have reduced capacity to process OIA requests. We will do our best to
make decisions on your OIA request as soon as practicably possible, and to
keep you informed of progress if there are likely to be delays.

 

For your information, the Chief Ombudsman has published updated guidance
on OIA requests during this time:

·       [1]Chief Ombudsman's statement on official information response
times during implementation of the COVID-19 Protection Framework

·       [2]FAQs about official information requests during COVID-19

 

Please note that our response letter to you (with your personal details
redacted), and any enclosed documents, may be published on the Ministry’s
website.

 

Ngâ mihi
