This is a request for information under the Official Information Act 1982.

 

On 18 January 2022 a request for information relating to the issues of
workplace bullying and sexual harassment at the Ministry of Justice was
made under the Official Information Act 1982 to Kris Faafoi. The request
for the information was refused.

 

After discussion with the Office of the Ombudsman, a fresh set of requests
is was made.

 

This resulted in a request for information under the Official Information
Act 1982 from the following agencies:

 

The Ministry of Justice

The Office of the Minister of Justice

Department of Internal Affairs

The Office of the Prime Minister and Cabinet

 

The information requested was all information relating to the issue of
workplace bullying and sexual harassment occurring within the Waitangi
Tribunal Unit (the body within the Ministry of Justice that provides
administrative and support services to the Waitangi Tribunal -not the
Waitangi Tribunal itself), since 2017.

 

This request included all the papers or documents relating to each
respective Minister of Justice and Associate Minister of Justice since
2017.

 

After these requests were made discussions with a former Minister of
Justice indicated that they believed that employment issues with the
Waitangi Tribunal were overseen by Te Puni Kokiri.

 

This request is for all information relating to the issues of workplace
bullying and sexual harassment of staff by senior staff at the Waitangi
Tribunal from the date 1 January 2016 held by (and previously held by) the
Minister and the Minister's Office.  This request is not to be forwarded
to the Ministry.  A separate request has been made to the Ministry.

 

Naku noa, na,
