Dear Petrus,

 

On behalf of the Ministry of Business, Innovation and Employment I
acknowledge your email of 21^st April 2021 requesting under the Official
Information Act 1982 (the Act), the following:

 

‘The selections for EOI was suspended for another 6 months last year Oct
2020 stating again due to COVID regulations. From what I understand that
the suspension has now expired already and an announcement is or was to be
made on when selections will be taking place. so my questions are: - When
will EOI selections resume as the suspension has now expired? - If no date
is provided on when selections will be taking place then when will the
announcement be made on when selections will be taking place as the
suspension has expired?. - Why cant selections for onshore immigrants that
is in the EOI pool and currently meet the criteria for SMC and have the
funds not take place? Surely this money can help the economy recover. -
How many current submissions are there in the EOI pool waiting to be
selected that meets the 160 point requirement and please state whether
they are onshore or offshore? - How many of the submissions will fall
under the priority list when selections start?’

 

Your request is being processed in accordance with the Act and a response
will be sent to you in due course.

 

If you have any enquiries regarding your request, or its urgency, feel
free to contact us via email at [1][MBIE request email].

 

Nâku noa, nâ
