Benefit fraud - recover of money obtained by fraud

Katherine Raue made this Official Information request to Ministry of Justice

Response to this request is long overdue. By law Ministry of Justice should have responded by now (details and exceptions). The requester can complain to the Ombudsman.

From: Katherine Raue

Dear Ministry of Justice,

I request the following information regarding the news report at this link:
http://www.nzherald.co.nz/wairarapa-time...

Was any attempt made whatsoever to recover any of the money stolen by Ms McGreal and her partner, and if not, why not?

Who prosecuted this matter - the Police or the Crown Law Office, or who?

I request all information about this matter.

Yours faithfully,

Katherine Raue
Manager
Transparency NZ

Katherine, I have hidden your annotation. Please read our moderation policy: https://fyi.org.nz/request/1289-benefit-...

If you want to post anything else (allegations, etc.) you are welcome to simply post a link to a blog post or similar.

I note that this overdue request never got any acknowledgement. It may be more effective to simply send a follow-up checking if the ministry received the request, rather than going straight to the Ombudsman.
