Ministry statistics and its own position on gender issues

Liz Simons made this Official Information request to Ministry for Women

The request was successful.

From: Liz Simons

Dear Ministry for Women,

Under the Official Information Act I request the following information:

What is the percentage of Ministry staff that are male.

What level of gender balance is targeted or desired by the Ministry with respect to the male/female gender balance. What is the tolerable percentage deviation from a 50:50 ratio the Ministry is happy with.

What is the gender pay gap between men and women at the Ministry.

What is the percentage tolerance level targeted with regards to pay difference between genders that the Ministry views as allowable.

Does the Ministry look to have gender balance within all its business units and does it actively pursue and monitor this.

What percentage of the senior leadership of the Ministry are men.

Does the Ministry ever envision a male CEO of the Ministry.

Does the Ministry support transwomen as real women and include them in female statistics.

Does the Ministry support transwomen in women's sports.

Yours faithfully,

Liz
