Subject: Official Information request - Seismic ratings

[You don't often get email from [FOI #28043 email]. Learn why this is important at https://aka.ms/LearnAboutSenderIdentific... ]

Dear Ministry of Education,

How many schools have one or more buildings that have a seismic rating of less than 30% NBS?

How many schools have not been informed of their seismic rating for these buildings since 2020?

How many complaints has the ministry received from schools regarding undisclosed information relating to their seismic rating?

What is the ministry’s process for informing schools of their seismic rating? Is there a separate process for when a building is assessed at below 30% NBS? Under what circumstances would the ministry not inform schools of the seismic ratings of their buildings?

What seismic rating does a building need to have for the ministry to consider it unsafe to occupy?

How does the ministry financially support schools that require remediation?

What seismic rating must a building have to consider it a priority or urgent matter to address?

Has the ministry sought legal advice on the liability it may face if low rated buildings caused harm to students?

Yours faithfully,

James Webb
