From: Terry Thomas

Dear Public Service Commission,

Please provide all guidance and advice provided by you to any agency, department, ministry or Crown entity, or other organisation/entity funded by government, and any advice to ministers, on naming conventions, particularly the adoption and use of Maori names for those entities and for staff titles and documents/reports created by those entities.

Also any guidance and advice to the entities described above on the use of Aotearoa instead of, or as a supplement to, the use of New Zealand in documents and communications.

Please also provide any guidance, direction or expectation provided to you by any minister on these subjects.

This request includes formal guidance to/ from the commission as well as informal, such as that provided in emails or minuted/recorded/noted in meetings.

Please limit this request to information created since the 2017 election.

Yours faithfully,

Terry Thomas
