The PEAC  policy
[1]https://www.op.ac.nz/about-us/governance...
requires in clause  5 that  There must be a PEAC for every programme, but
PEACs can have oversight of more than one programme. Within these
parameters, it is a matter for the existing PEACs to determine whether
more PEACs should be created or existing PEACs disbanded or amalgamated.

This means that we do have over 20 PEACs. Do you require the requested
information for each of these PEACs?

Our response to your request is due on or before Tuesday 12 October 2021.

Nga mihi

Sue Thompson

Kia ora John
Our response to your OIA request is attached which includes the PEAC details and minutes as requested for Social Services and Applied Management . You will note that English Languages and Foundation Learning do not have PEACs as such however regular input from stakeholders is sought for these programmes which lead to a New Zealand qualification. The reason for not having PEACs is because the main purpose of these programmes is for successful learners to staircase into higher level programmes which in turn will lead to work. This means that key stakeholders are the higher level programmes and other community agencies committed to individuals' development . My apologies for listing these areas as having a PEAC.
Do get in touch if you have any further queries .
Ngā mihi
Sue
