Subject: Official Information request - Office of Ethnic Communities- OIA request EC20200144

Dear Department of Internal Affairs,

Thank you for your reply on my earlier request under the OIA EC20200144.

As noted on your reply, "an external panel considers requests of over $10,000. The panels consist of four to six members each."

May I ask the member who sit on this external panel and how you select them from the general public? How much fees they have been paid for each meeting and any reimbursement they have received. Also, how long are their term of appointment and any bio of the member you can share. How many meeting they have had so far and may I have the minutes of all their meeting.

Yours faithfully,

john luke
