Thank you for your refined request under the Official Information Act 1982
of 9 July 2020 seeking the following information:

 

Please provide all information, documents, correspondence, or any other
information held in any form regarding NZQA approval of the 'Bachelor of
Natropathic and Herbal Medicine'. Please interpret this request to
encompass all versions including drafts, and any documents held in any
kind of backup system.

 

You can expect to receive a response to your request on or before 6 August
2020. You will be contacted again if there is a likelihood that this
timeframe cannot be met.

 

As you may know requests for official information become official
information once received.  As part of the processing of requests for
official information, NZQA may need to consult with relevant third
parties.  During the consultation, a third party may ask for the identity
of the individual/organisation requesting the information.

 

If you are an individual making a request, please advise us whether or not
you would have an objection to disclosing your identity if a third party
asks for your identity, and the reasons for your objection.   

 

If you are an individual making a request on behalf of an organisation
please advise us both whether you personally have an objection to
disclosing your identity, and the reasons for your objection, as well as
any objection to identifying the organisation, together with reasons.

 

NZQA will consider your reasons and whether they fit with any withholding
grounds under the Privacy Act 1993 or the Official Information Act 1982.

For any enquiries about your request please contact
[1][email address].

 

If you are dissatisfied with our response, you have the right, under
section 28(3) of the Official Information Act 1982, to lodge a complaint
with the Office of the Ombudsman at [2]www.ombudsman.parliament.nz. You
can also telephone 0800 802 502 or write to the Ombudsman at PO Box 10152,
Wellington, 6143.
