Kia ora Will

 

Thank you for your email.

 

The information that has been redacted as ‘Out of Scope’ falls under
Minister Sepuloni’s Disability Issues portfolio.

 

You may remember the attached email discussion from 27 May 2021.

 

As you indicated that you were only interested in the Social Development
aspect of Minister Sepuloni’s Social Development and Employment portfolio,
this information was removed.

 

Should you still wish to receive the redacted information, we can reassess
this as a new OIA request.

 

Many thanks

 

Ngā mihi, Anna
