Dear Simon Heggarty
I refer to your email of 15 July 2020 in which you request the following under the Official
Information Act 1982 (OIA):
“1. The amount of sponsorship or funding paid to the Kiwi Expat Association (KEA)
since its inception.
2. The KPIs, goals, or targets that KEA is required to fulfil for this funding and
reporting submitted by the Association to show its delivery toward these.
3. Any correspondence between KEA and NZTE over the past 12 months in relation to
funding of the organisation.”
The information to which your request relates is more closely connected with New Zealand
Trade and Enterprise. Therefore your request has been transferred to that office in
accordance with the provisions of section 14 of the OIA.
You have the right under section 28(3) of the OIA to seek a review of this response by the
Ombudsman.
Yours sincerely
Julie-Anne Lee
for Secretary of Foreign Affairs and Trade
