Subject: Official Information request - CORE's Te Punaha Matatini

 

Dear University of Auckland,

What is the legal status of the CORE's that you "host" please.

Te Punaha Matatini is described as funded by TEC and hosted by Auckland
University. But they don't seem to be a society or charity in their own
right.

Is Te Puhana Matatini a government organisation being hosted on the campus
of the University?

Or is TPM a department of the University?

Which entity receives the TEC funding? Which organisation pays the TPM
staff?

Yours faithfully,

:Penny
