Subject: Official Information request - Use of grants in relation to Specsavers

Dear Ministry of Social Development,

The Ministry provides grants to its clients for use at Specsavers. These grants may be used on an eye test, and glasses.

I am requesting information on why the Ministry limits choices of frames to the $69 and $99 range of Specsavers.

Yours faithfully,

Theo Morra
