Chuck Schooner (Account suspended) made this Official Information request to Kris Faafoi

This request has an unknown status. We're waiting for Chuck Schooner (Account suspended) to read recent responses and update the status.

From: Chuck Schooner (Account suspended)

Dear Kris Faafoi,

Another doozy - recently it has been announced we are going to take 150 refugees each year for three years from Australia - yay!

Please provide the following

- Are the refugees required to be vaccinated to enter country - please provide any and all vaccination requirements associated with this policy
- who is liable for refugees entering country getting jabbed and getting injured?
- If there aren’t vaccination requirements please provide risk assessment associated with these refugees
- Please provide all of the documents associated with housing for the refugees - where will they be living, at what cost, who is paying
- What is provided to refugees in terms of job availability?
- Have the refugees been made aware of if they can find work then do they know the excessive spending / incompetent fiscal policy / stupidity / corruption then the money they earn probably won’t buy them a grape?
- do the refugees have other options as to countries they can go to?
- have there been any focus groups to ask if the refugees want to come to New Zealand?

Yours faithfully,
Chuck

Kia ora,

On behalf of Hon Kris Faafoi, thank you for your email. 

While the Minister considers all correspondence to be important, and all
messages are carefully read and considered, it is not always possible to
personally reply to all emails.  As such, the following guidelines apply:

·        Invitations and meeting requests will be processed as soon as
possible and a staff member will be in contact with you in due course

·        All media queries will be responded to by a staff member

·        Requests for official information will be managed in accordance
with the provisions of the Official Information Act 1982, which may
include transfer to a more relevant Minister or agency

·        If your email falls outside of the Minister’s portfolio
responsibilities, expresses a personal view, or is copied to multiple
Members of Parliament, then your opinion will be noted and your
correspondence may be transferred to another office, or there may be no
further response to you

Thank you for the taking the time to write.

Nga mihi,

Office of Hon Kris Faafoi

Minister of Justice, Minister of Immigration, Minister for Broadcasting
and Media
