This request has been reported as needing administrator attention (perhaps because it is vexatious, or a request for personal information)

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
