Tēnā koe,

 

Thank you for contacting the office of Hon Peeni Henare - MP for Tāmaki
Makaurau, Minister for ACC, Minister of Tourism,  Minister for Whānau Ora,
Associate Minister for the Environment, Associate Minister of Health
(Māori Health).

While the Minister considers all correspondence to be important and all
messages are carefully read and considered, it is not possible to provide
a personal response to every email received.

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

Where the Minister has portfolio responsibility for the issues that you
have raised, your correspondence will be considered and responded to where

may be transferred to another office for consideration.

Thank you for taking the time to write.

Subject: Official Information request - Briefings and reports received as
Minister of Defence regarding attrition and pay for NZDF staff

 

Dear Peeni Henare,

 

I would like request for a list of all briefings and reports regarding
attrition, pay, and employment conditions for both military and civilian
staff that the Minister Henare has received from NZDF and the Ministry of
Defence for the duration of his time holding the Minister of Defence
portfolio, including;

 

1) The title of the briefing

2) The date received

3) The agency of origin (NZDF or MoD)

4) The reference number

 

Of particular interest is the brief referenced in the media (“Defence
Force Says Poor Pay Is Driving Attrition,” 2022) that Minister Henare
received from NZDF's chief people officer Brigadier Matt Weston around 07
March 2022. Any related reports from other entities, such as the
originator of the data, which informed this brief would also be
appreciated.

 

Yours faithfully,

 

Pablo
