Thank you for your email of 7 November 2021 requesting the following information:
•
This is to request under the Official Information Act 1982 all information you hold in a
ministerial capacity regarding the definition or use of the term "social licence". To avoid
doubt, this request is for information relating to any of your portfolio or other ministerial
responsibilities.
I have considered your request under the Official Information Act 1982 (the Act).
As the Associate Minister of Education (Māori Education), I do not hold any information with
reference to this term and as such, I am refusing your request under section 18(e) of the Act
as this information does not exist or, despite reasonable efforts to locate, cannot be found.
Thank you again for your email. You have the right to ask an Ombudsman to review this
decision. You can do this by writing to
[email address], or the Office of the
Ombudsman, PO Box 10152, Wellington 6143.
Heoi anō
Kelvin Davis
Associate Minister of Education
