May I ask how did you call for public nomination and on what platform you have call for public
nominations, e.g. govt.jobs website. Also, how many applications you have received from the public and
how many you have received from other nominating agencies such as TPK or Ministry of women etc.
further, how many you have shortlisted. When you expect the recruitment process will concluded. Also,
can you please supply current member's name and term of appointment.
We have publicly advertised the two member roles for the Chartered Professional Engineers Council on
our Board Appointments page, seek and jobs.govt.nz. The closing date for the role was recently extended,
therefore, we do not currently have any information regarding the nominations, shortlist or conclusion of
this process at this time. There are two vacancies on the Council as two members are departing.
MBIE is therefore refusing this part of your request under section 18(e) of the Act, as the document
alleged to contain the information requested does not exist or, despite reasonable efforts to locate it,
cannot be found.
You have the right to seek an investigation and review by the Ombudsman of this decision. Information
about how to make a complaint is available at www.ombudsman.parliament.nz or freephone 0800 802
