Kia ora

 

I would like to request the following information under the Official
Information Act 1982 (OIA), in relation to staff resourcing dedicated to
the response of OIA requests, ministerials, and Parliamentary Questions
(PQs).

 

OIAs

 

1.            What is the total number of full-time equivalent (FTE) staff
in your agency tasked with responding to OIA requests?

To clarify, I mean the figure relating to staff where one of their core
responsibilities is to respond to, coordinate, administrate, review,
assess, advise upon, manage and/or in any way handle OIA requests. This
figure should include team leaders or managers. I do not mean every
subject matter expert in an agency who may provide the substantive
information used in an OIA response.

2.            Could you please break down the figure requested in Question
1 according to role title and number of FTE staff under each role title?

 

Suggested template:

              Number of Staff Dedicated to OIA Responses

              ROLE A  ROLE B  ROLE C  ROLE ETC

FTE Staff                                                           

 

3.            If not already outlined in your answer to Question 2, could
you please confirm whether your agency has a staff member devoted to
administering OIA requests (separate from responding/collating/reviewing
information)?

4.            Could you please confirm the name of the
information/workflow management system in place to help coordinate and
allocate OIA requests to staff for response, if one is used?

 

Ministerials

 

5.            What is the total number of FTE staff in your agency tasked
with responding to ministerials?

To clarify, I mean the figure relating to staff where one of their core
responsibilities is to respond to, coordinate, administrate, review,
assess, advise upon, manage and/or in any way handle ministerials. This
should include team leaders or managers. I do not mean every subject
matter expert in an agency who may provide the substantive information
used in a ministerial response.

6.            Could you please break down the figure requested in Question
5 according to role title and number of FTE staff under each role title?

 

Suggested template:

              Number of Staff Dedicated to Ministerials

              ROLE A  ROLE B  ROLE C  ROLE ETC

FTE Staff                                                           

 

7.            If not already outlined in your answer to Question 6, could
you please confirm whether your agency has a staff member devoted to
administering ministerials (separate from responding/collating/reviewing
information)?

8.            Could you please confirm the name of the
information/workflow management system in place to help coordinate and
allocate ministerial cases to staff for response, if one is used?

 

PQs

 

9.            The total number of FTE staff in your agency tasked with
responding to PQs?

To clarify, I mean the figure relating to staff where one of their core
responsibilities is to respond to, coordinate, administrate, review,
assess, advise upon, manage and/or in any way handle PQs. This should
include team leaders or managers. I do not mean every subject matter
expert in an agency who may provide the substantive information used in a
PQ response.

10.         Could you please break down the figure requested in Question 9
according to role title and number of FTE staff under each role title?

 

Suggested template:

              Number of Staff Dedicated to PQs

              ROLE A  ROLE B  ROLE C  ROLE ETC

FTE Staff                                                           

 

11.         If not already outlined in your answer to Question 10, could
you please confirm whether your agency has a staff member devoted to
administering PQs (separate from responding/collating/reviewing
information)?

12.         Could you please confirm the name of the information/workflow
management system in place to help coordinate and allocate PQs to staff
for response, if one is used?

 

By ‘administering’ in Questions 3, 7 and 11, this could include logging,
recording, saving, assigning cases, etc.

 

Please note, I understand that there will likely be some overlap in the
figures for each of the three data points sought (OIAs vs ministerials vs
PQs). Any contextual comments are therefore welcome.

 

Thank you

 

Katie
