Dear Ministry of Business, Innovation & Employment,

I am writing to request information under the Official Information Act 1982 regarding the exploitation of illegal overstayer immigrants in New Zealand and the government's efforts to combat such exploitation. Specifically, I am seeking information on the number of individuals involved in exploiting illegal overstayer immigrants who have been arrested and brought to justice, as well as the outcomes of these cases. Additionally, I am interested in understanding the measures and actions undertaken by the New Zealand Government to prevent the exploitation of illegal overstayer immigrants.

I kindly request the following information:

1. The total number of cases where individuals or entities were arrested and prosecuted for exploiting illegal overstayer immigrants in New Zealand over the past 10 years.

2. Information on the types of exploitation or offenses for which these individuals or entities were arrested and prosecuted, such as labor exploitation, human trafficking, or other related offenses.

3. Any statistics or data related to the demographics of the exploited overstayer immigrants, including their nationalities and age groups.

4. Details on any government support or services provided to the exploited overstayer immigrants during or after legal proceedings, including but not limited to immigration assistance, counseling, or social services.

5. An overview of the policies, programs, or initiatives implemented by Immigration New Zealand and the Ministry of Business, Innovation, and Employment (MBIE) to prevent the exploitation of illegal overstayer immigrants in New Zealand.

6. Any partnerships or collaborations between government agencies, non-governmental organizations, or international organizations aimed at addressing the exploitation of illegal overstayer immigrants.

I look forward to your prompt response within the statutory timeframe of 20 working days, as stipulated by the Official Information Act 1982. If you require any clarification or further details regarding this request, please do not hesitate to contact me via the provided email address.

Thank you for your attention to this matter, and I appreciate your assistance in providing the requested information.

Yours faithfully,
