What are the "Covid-19 Support Instructions" NZTE is applying?

Matt Brown made this Official Information request to New Zealand Trade and Enterprise

The request was refused by New Zealand Trade and Enterprise.

From: Matt Brown

Dear New Zealand Trade and Enterprise,

Recent news articles refer to statements from your spokesperson about application of the "Covid-19 Support Instructions".

This phrase and associated documentation cannot be found on the NZTE, Covid19 or any other NZ government websites.

Please confirm and supply details of what these instructions are - in particular I would appreciate receiving:
* a copy of the "Covid-19 Support Instructions" NZTE is using
* A count of how many visa applications NZTE has supported in each of the "border exception criteria" resulting from those instructions.

Yours faithfully,

Matt
