Subject: Official Information request - Cost of PG

Dear Ministry of Health,

I am doing a research on the cost of Personal grievance that the
Government is incurring in the last 3 years. Can I request under the
Official Information Act

1-      The number of Personal Grievances raised in your Ministry, in the
last 3 years broken down by year , and categories (for example: Bullying,
Unjustifiably disadvantaged, constructive dismissal etc)

2-      (in the last 3 years) The number of Mediation that took place 
broken down by year

3-      (in the last 3 years)  The number of successful mediation broken
down by year

4-      (in the last 3 years) Of the PGs raised, how many went to
Employment Relations Authority broken down by year?

5-      (in the last 3 years) How many cases were found against the
Ministry broken down by year?

6-      (in the last 3 years)  How much money – in total- were paid to
settle these cases / or pay the fee required by ERA broken down by year?

7-      How much money was covered by the Ministry’s liability insurance?

8-      (in the last 3 years)  How much money – in total – were paid to
external Legal consultants to defend the cases filed in ERA or to prepare
the responses to the case broken down by year?

9-      (in the last 3 years) How many ERA cases resulted in reinstatement
of employee broken down by year?

10-   If a case is found against the Ministry (the Ministry lost), what
are the consequences to the Manager involved in the incident?

I await your response within 20 working days of the receipt of this
request. Thank you.

Yours faithfully,

Jean Roberts
