Kia ora Wendy,

 

On behalf of the Ministry of Business, Innovation and Employment I
acknowledge your email of 29 April 2023 requesting under the Official
Information Act 1982 (the Act), the following:

 

‘I am writing to request the information regarding Transport sector
agreement details and the information regarding:

 

1. The list of employers who have signed the Waka Kotahi (New Zealand
Transport Authority) ‘All Parties Memorandum of Understanding – Improving
Driver Terms and Conditions’ for the region they wish to recruit bus
drivers.

2. The list of employers who are on the Ministry of Education-funded
school bus service list.’

 

This email is to advise you that part one of your request has been
transferred to Waka Kotahi and part two of your request has been
transferred to the Ministry of Education on 4 May 2023 and is being
processed in accordance with the Official Information Act 1982.

 

This is because the information you have requested is not held by the
Ministry of Business, Innovation and Employment.  Section 14(b)(i) of the
Official Information Act allows me to transfer any request where the
information is not held, but is believed to be held by another department,
organisation or Minister of the Crown.

 

I trust you find the information helpful.  You have the right to seek an
investigation and review by the Ombudsman of this decision. Information
about how to make a complaint is available at
[1]www.ombudsman.parliament.nz or freephone 0800 802 602.

 

If you require any further assistance or have any enquiries regarding your
request feel free to contact us via email [2][MBIE request email] or using the
contact details below.

 

Nâku noa, nâ
