Official Information Act request relating to the decision on reporting Pacific data in
Child and Youth Wellbeing Strategy and Child Poverty Related Indicators
Thank you for your request made under the Official Information Act (the Act), received on 26
April 2024. You requested:
“Please provide copies of all advice and correspondence, including summaries of
phone calls, about the decision to not report Pacific data in the Annual report on the
Child and Youth Wellbeing Strategy and Child Poverty Related Indicators, released in
April this year.
For clarity, I would like all advice and correspondence internally, with other agencies,
and with Ministers and their offices.”
I believe the information you have requested is more closely connected with the functions of
the Ministry of Social Development (MSD). Accordingly, I have decided to transfer your
request, in full, to the Ministry of Social Development under section 14(b)(ii) of the Act.
MSD has the usual timeframes under the Act from receipt of this transfer to make a decision
on your request.
Nāku noa, nā
