Thank you for your request of 24 November 2024 to the Ministry of Justice (the Ministry),
requesting under the Official Information Act 1982 (the Act), information relating to the
Environment Court and the Environment Commissioner. Specifically, you requested:
May I ask how you called for public nomination and on what platform you have call for
public nominations e.g. govt.jobs website. Also, how many applications you have
received from the public and how many you have received from other nominating
agencies such as TPK or Ministry of women etc for your role. May I also seek a copy
of the ad went out to public and the appointment letter sent to the appointee (not need
to be this round, any previous one as an example would be ok), feel free to redact any
personal information.
The call for expressions of interest appeared (EOI) on the Ministry of Justice’s Statutory
Appointments webpage and via the
Resource Management Law Association of New
Zealand’s website/publication:

No EOIs were received from other agencies and in total 20 EOIs were received. Shortlisting
is currently underway and interviews wil not likely take place until the new year, so no
appointment letters have been sent. A copy of the advertisement is attached for your
