Kia ora,

On behalf of Hon Kris Faafoi, thank you for your email. 

While the Minister considers all correspondence to be important, and all
messages are carefully read and considered, it is not always possible to
personally reply to all emails.  As such, the following guidelines apply:

·        Invitations and meeting requests will be processed as soon as
possible and a staff member will be in contact with you in due course

·        All media queries will be responded to by a staff member

·        Requests for official information will be managed in accordance
with the provisions of the Official Information Act 1982, which may
include transfer to a more relevant Minister or agency

·        If your email falls outside of the Minister’s portfolio
responsibilities, expresses a personal view, or is copied to multiple
Members of Parliament, then your opinion will be noted and your
correspondence may be transferred to another office, or there may be no
further response to you

Thank you for the taking the time to write.

Nga mihi,

Office of Hon Kris Faafoi

Dear K Faafoi (MIN),

Just a follow up on this - as per Government policy

- non-New Zealand citizens including New Zealand permanent residents need proof of vaccination to enter NZ
- non-New Zealand citizens who are transiting New Zealand require proof of vaccination
- foreign air crew arriving in New Zealand require proof of vaccination

Proof of vaccination is not required for refugees or people entering from Ukraine amongst other groups - can you please provide all documentation collaborating with The Ministry of Health relating to the following

- Documents, reporting, risk assessments and recommendations as to why the above groups are required to have proof of vaccination - is it a perceived higher risk? Please provide the public health recommendation for this group of people requiring vaccination
- Documents, reporting, risk assessments and recommendations as to why refugees and people from Ukraine ARE NOT required to have proof of vaccination - is it a perceived lower risk? Please provide the public health recommendation for this group of people and why the don't require vaccination.

If the above has not been done then why not? Surely refugees and people from Ukraine would then fall under the category of non-New Zealand citizens entering in New Zealand who require vaccination.

Yours sincerely,

Chuck Schooner

Dear C Hipkins (MIN),

Just another example of foreigners having more human rights than kiwis. Also you should probably distance yourself from the vaccine. It is down to 12% efficacy for one week and likely compromised fertility, immunity and heart and lung issues which are starting to come out. The Pfizer trial tested 44 rats for fertility - in essence Medsafe signed off the vaccine saying the humans in NZ are ranked lower than rats. I’m closer and closer to exposing you corrupt frauds, and you Hipkins will be first.

Yours sincerely,

Chuck Schooner
