Universal student allowance investigation

Matthew Schep made this Official Information request to Ministry of Education

The request was partially successful.

From: Matthew Schep

Dear Ministry of Education,

Under the leadership of former Tertiary Education Minister Pete Hodgson, over a decade ago, the Ministry of Education undertook an cost investigation into the concept of a universal tertiary student allowance.

Can you please provide me with a copy of any documents or reports that were published as a part of or as the culmination of that investigation?

I would also like to see copies of all emails sent to and from Minister Hodgson's government email account during his tenure as Tertiary Education Minister that reference universal student allowance.

I am aware that these two requests will take different amounts of time to process, and so I would like to request that the documents and reports are sent as soon as possible, without waiting for the emails to be ready at the same time.

Yours faithfully,

Matthew Schep
